Tap & Crack!

Be nice to people on your way up, because you'll meet them on your way down - Wilson Mizner
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
Warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
Time was ticking on...
Gives hubby a sloppy wet 😘 before I left.
The Big big sunglasses go on.
On goes the summer coat with a jacket on underneath.
I put on my lights.
Now for some fun...🍭
Two cars failed to stop...
It will soon tap and crack if car drivers fails to stop! 
At least the sun was out!
Finished in one piece.
Now to do some shopping.
I got the newspaper on the way home.
Puts the coffee machine on.
Now for the washing machine to go 
(In total 3 times)
All the lines are full....
Unloads and loads up dishwasher.
Now for a much needed coffee!
All the bins get emptied.
Now to start writing some blog posts!
At least my offer came from Good Housekeeping.
My radio in the kitchen has died on me.
I can only get one station, and that's Classical FM.
I ordered a echo dot from Argos...
(Pick up later)
I was waiting for my order from DPD 12- 1pm.
Early lunch incase it come early.
I go upstairs to wash my teeth, and surprise surprise, a DPD van goes up the road....
Then I receive a pic of my parcel...
Let's DPD customer service department know it's been delivered wrong.
They will phone me back tomorrow morning.
I let the seller know the parcel has been delivered else.
Then the string of emails soon followed.
"It's been delivered...."They said.
"Not to my house it ain't"I replied,
With a photo of my house.
Then off to work I go.
Summer coat goes on.
I gets a ice lolly from the shop.
Turns on my lights.
Sits on a bench and chats with my friend for a good yak of half an hour.
I say goodbye to my friend.
I start the afternoon shift.
One speedy driver comes up the road, sees me in the middle of the road and had to brake hard!
No chance of tap and crack!
Back to the pavement I go.
At least I finished in one piece!
Now onto Argos.
Quickly in there.
Then back home with it.
The Seller is still sending emails.
I send one to shut them down until tomorrow.
The echo dot is now fully working in the kitchen!
I get Saturday's blog post wrote.
Now to do my Meat-free Stir Fry.....
Quick look in the newspaper.
The moon is looking nice tonight...
Time for Sleep Tea...
Hubby came back from snooker a lot earlier than last Monday Night!
Only got to pot red and blue and that's it!

They are back in over an hour.
Then the talking starts.....
Stops only for Christmas Dinner.
We caught up on the 30th Anniversary of Have I Got News For You.
Cups of tea, biscuits, and trifle....
I showed my father-in-law, 6 John Wayne DVDS I picked up from a Charity Shop in Worcester a few years ago...
His eyes lit up!
Once he has watched them, he can have more western films from my late dad's collection of DVDs.

I said goodbye and hopes he enjoy the food and John Wayne!
