Welcome To Mum's Singing Party!

I believe in large families.Everyone should have at least three husbands - Zsa Zsa Gabor

At last it's arrived!🎈🎈🎈

The sun is coming up!

 Enjoying a cup of tea in bed↓

 I gave hubby a sloppy 💋 before he left the house.

Now to get up our kids.

We have to visit town for some bits!

 

 I had to nip to the man's cave again to pick up my paint order↓

 At least there was another woman in there!

Now off to town we go....

 The view from Car Park 4↑↑

My youngest son went off to get his haircut.

While in town, I met so many people to chat to!

One of co-worker who used to work with me at Fawlty towers, I bumped into in Barclays Bank.

Chatted with her for 10 minutes.

On the way to the market,

I chatted with one of the Labour Councillors.

While getting some food off the market,

I bumped into a friend who I haven't seen in 12 months.

Good chat for 6 months.

While my kids were choosing some food off the stall.

Some great tunes came on,

I just had to sing-a-long very loudly...

"Mum,it's not a singing contest!" One son said.

"No son, it's mum's singing party!" I laughed!

On the way back to the car, I bumped into another friend I used to work with.

We just missed out on paying £2.50 by five minutes in the car park.

 My son a pic of a nice car we when we were leaving the car park↓

 There was a nice song I just had to put on repeat on the way home...

Lots of tuts after the third time from my kids ;)

At least is not too hot↓

 

 Light lunch↓

 A read of the newspaper↓

 All the lovely stuff I bought from town↓

 My postman had to come back with my Bodyshop order, as he forgot the first time he gave us the post.

 I finally got paid, a day late \o/

Off to work I go.

 I came back to have a sucky↓

 My gerbils asleep↓

 Then we went out so my kids to do some boxing practice↓

 At least the temperature went down when we got back↓

 After tea,I was waiting for my younger brother to come round, as I bought a nice kitchen unit and I needed to pay him to pick it up for me...

He couldn't come round in the end.

I had left it too late to go and do my other job.

(That will be done over the weekend instead)

Now to drag a tired hubby to bed,

To enjoy some Friday Feeling 🎈🎈🎈 

 

 

 

Never Mind The Wrapping...

“A lovely thing about Christmas is that it’s compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together.” – Garrison Keillor

It was nice to have a bit of a lie-in..

 Then out to do my job.

Plenty of singing along while cleaning...

Comes back..

It is time to fight the crowds to do some Christmas Food Shopping...

Off we go.

Bromsgrove Aldi.

We checked out the new Lidl in Bromsgrove.

Followed by the bigger store called the Food Warehouse.

We tried to find some Whipped Cream.

We visited the Bromsgrove Waitrose.

We got some nice reduced food.

The only place we could get some cream was the Asda in Redditch.

Back home for some late lunch.

Now to wrap some Christmas Presents up.

 I did 90% of wrapping up.

I took a break to read the newspaper.

Johnny Kidd [Frederick Heath]:  English singer–songwriter (Johnny Kidd & Pirates), 

would have been 79 years old.

(He died aged 30 in 1966) 

John Sullivan: 
English television scriptwriter responsible for several British sitcoms,( including Only Fools and Horses, Citizen Smith and Just Good Friends.) 
He would have been 72 years.
(He died aged 64 in 2011)

  Margaret Hamilton: suffered a second-degree burn on her face and a third-degree burn on her hand during a second take of her fiery exit from Munchkinland, in which the trap door's drop was delayed to eliminate the brief glimpse of it seen in the final edit. Hamilton had to recuperate in a hospital and at home for six weeks after the accident before returning to the set to complete her work on the film, and refused to have anything further to do with fire for the rest of the filming of"The Wizard of Oz" in 1939.

 We caught up on Kirstie's Homemade Christmas...

 Then off to a warm bed......
