Quick read of the newspaper↓

Freddie Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara;) was a British singer, songwriter, record producer, and lead vocalist of the rock band Queen. Regarded as one of the greatest lead singers in the history of rock music, he was known for his flamboyant stage persona and four-octave vocal range. Mercury defied the conventions of a rock frontman, with his highly theatrical style influencing the artistic direction of Queen.He would have been 74 years old 🎈

He died aged 45 in 1991. 

 With coffee and crumpets↓

Welcome to my Hump of the week 🐫

It was back to work for hubby.

The dust was removed from the alarm clock..

It was a early tea in bed this morning!

  I even waved him off....

It was so cold...

 We had a hard frost last night....

More house tidying up to do...

Much needed coffee afterwards..

 Once my kids had surfaced, and had breakfast.

Time to add bobble hat and scrape the windscreen....

 No wonder it is was cold....↓

 Plenty of singing along to the CD...

 Down to Morrisons again..

 I got some nice orange and blue Pussy Willow.

Afterwards dropped in to see my Dad.

He refused to come downstairs,

So I had my coffee downstairs.

 Back home,

The temperatures had gone up to 3c.

 More bobble hats arrived for me↓
