Welcome to my Wet Hump of the Week 🐫

Just about to start the breakfast, when hubby knocked over his bowl of porridge and all over the floor it went!

Gives hubby a wet sloppy 💋before I left.
Plenty of wind and rain.
On goes the boots, 2 winter hats and waterproof gloves.
I didn't wait around to for ten minutes to start in the pouring rain and wind. I went and stood by car until it was time to start.
When I did start, oh the fun I had, with the rain lashing down and wind knocking my lollystick all over the place!
I was glad to finish in one piece!

My friend was sitting in his car when I was getting changed.He soon came over, and we had a good yak up to my lights, and back down to chat with our other friend.

My gold digging brother...
Pity he didn't come past me 10 minutes later.....
When I was on duty.
It may have stopped raining, but those strong winds were making it well cold, and making cars not stop either.
Some cars on the otherside had no intention of stopping even though I had my stick out and crossing the road!
It was getting well cold...
Home Time for me!
I added another layer to the curtains at the top of the stairs, plus a third layer to the curtains.
