Swaps my newspaper for my big stick.
Everyone is coming into the hall to vote.

BOING,BOING,BOING!
Lots of people going into vote.

Good job I wasn't working at the time.
He dropped off his parcel, and forgot to shut his back doors and tried to drive off with them open.
Three minutes later, he got out and shut his back doors!
I said goodbye to my friends and got on with my shift.
Oh dear, it's carrying on from this morning.
Cars over the road not stopping. 
Cars stopping in the Keep Clear space.
Cars not stopping on my side!
I was glad to have survived until the end.

How Much For That Haircut?

Beauty is only a light switch away - Austin Powers
 
Welcome to a mixed bag of weather Thursday
The sun might be out, however those dark clouds of rain are coming in this afternoon.
Breakfast and Brew.
On goes the thermal vest.
Time to hit the road Jack!
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 😘 before I left.
It was still a bit cold.
On goes the winter hat, but with the summer hat.
Goes and turns on my lights, gets my newspaper.
Swaps my newspaper for my stick.
Off to turn on my other lights.
It was very  quiet for traffic as some teachers are on strike.
One year is in, in the High School,
The Junior School is closed.
Half of the Catholic School was open.
The Infants School was open.
Not a lot of children to cross over.
Still a few BOINGs I gave out.
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Coffee time!
Now down to write yesterday's blog post!
So much happened yesterday, it took me right up to liquid lunch.
Now for part two.
It looks like it is going to rain.
On goes the winter coat, and winter hat.
Goes into the Library for a chat.
Then off to turn on my lights, and I bump into whose Birthday it was yesterday.
Rumour had it one of my friends is my husband!
That will be please my husband.
The other "Husband" turned up.
Both him and Birthday boy went to the square while me and my other friend turned on my lights.
Nice parking on double yellow lines!
Turns on my lights and walks back to have a rabbit with all my friends in the square.
We got talking about hairdressing prices.
One friend went to a Salon in the Cotwolds and got her hair styled for £49.60, and that was half price!!!!!!
I told her how much I paid.
She advised to go somewhere else!
Just before I started my shift.
I said to my friends.
"I have a harem of husbands, one at home and two here, including your husband!"
Everybody laughed.
My aim to make people laugh is done :)
As soon as I started, the rain came down!
On and off went my hood.
In the end it stopped down.
Not much traffic either!
Still gave out a BOING!
Finished in one piece.
Home time.
Cup of brew time!
The tea gets put in the oven at 5 o' clock.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋.
Tea is served.
Yum!
