Pump Up The Loft!

I had a job as an airline pilot. I was fired because I kept locking the keys in the plane. They caught me on a 80-foot stepladder with a coat hanger - Steven Wright
Welcome to my Friday's Feeling 🎈
Nice warm hug to start the day off with.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
It's supposed to go up to 21c today...
I gave hubby a sloppy wet 💋
Summer Coat time...
Turned on my lights...
Now for the fun to start...🍭
The traffic lights at the bottom of the road was causing a traffic jam all the way up to me!
One side of the road was grid-locked. At least I only had one side of the road to stop!
(Or try too!)
At least I finished in one piece.
Now onto coffee and B3...
I had a coffee while waiting for my friend to arrive.
Hubby had to ask the Loft firm if they were coming as there was no sign of them by 10am.
They couldn't find the house!
They soon laying the insulation.
I had one last coffee.
I said goodbye to my friend and on home I went.
When I got home, their van was parked over the drive, so I parked on the road.
I was dying to use the toilet, but the boards were in the way.
Off to Morrisons to use their toilets.
Back again home for a very quick lunch.
Gave hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before I left.
On goes the Summer Coat.
My friend appears, so I nip and get a sausage roll, turn my lights and sit down with a chat with my friend for a chat.
I wished him a great weekend before I started my afternoon shift. 
Still having problems with the traffic backing up to me.
One car has stopped still for a good five minutes in the meantime I had crossed over about 10 people.
I finished in one piece.
They had finished the loft by the time I got home!
It was nice to use my own toilet!
The loft looks well nice.
We have to get a taller ladder as the kids can just about in the loft.
A little nibble...
We put some off-cuts of carpet to keep it a bit extra warm.
Shopping will be done tomorrow...
As well as bringing the stuff back from the storage unit, to go back into the warm loft!
Take away pizza for a late tea.
Quick look in the newspaper.
Frederick  Heath known professionally as Johnny Kidd, was an English singer-songwriter, best remembered as the lead vocalist for the rock and roll band Johnny Kidd & the Pirates.

We watched the third episode of the 20th season of Hell's Kitchen.
Sleep Tea time.
Off to bed with the last of the Friday Feeling 🎈

Back On The Saddle!

 Some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue - David Brent, The Office
Welcome to my wet Tuesday ⛆
Warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
It looks like the rain is coming in this afternoon.
So the sexy lumo trousers be out later on.
Dressed.
I gives hubby a wet sloppy 😘 before I leave.
Far too cold to wear the Summer coat.
On goes the winter coat with gloves!
I turned on my lights.
Now for the fun to start...🍭
Car drivers were having to slam their brakes on a bit more this morning.
I just lower my stick, and on goes their brakes!
A few banging of the gums.....
At least I finished in one piece!
I picked up the newspaper on the way home. 
Puts on  the coffee machine.
Now to drag the spin bike into the Living room.
Put a good film on to watch while spinning...
Warms the muscles up and start spinning for 25 minutes!
Cooled down.
Now for coffee!
Now to write yesterday's blog up to lunchtime.
Lunchtime.
Those sexy lumo trousers were put on before I left....
On goes the winter coat, gloves, and boots.
I puts on my lights. 
Then it starts to rain!
Not just light rain, but heavy rain.
I have a chat with my friend before I start.
Now to have more fun in the rain!
I'm glad I have my boots and gloves on!
Car drivers were leaving it late to brake again!
At least I finished in one piece, and just a bit damp!
Back home in the rain I go.
Gets out of my sexy lumo trousers.
Much needed hot coffee is needed!
Time to get the tea under way.
Lots of chopping up.
Puts it all the oven.
Hubby comes home has a sloppy wet 💋.
Veggie tea tonight.
Yum
