Sorting Out The Sequins & Nails!

 If you don't like my option of you, you can always improve - Ashleigh Brilliant
Welcome to the Friday Feeling 🎈
Dressed.
We go and see if there is a parking space outside the hotel.
There was one, but a bit too small for hubby's car↓
He parked the car in the next road.
 
We had a nice filling breakfast.
Collects the trolley.
Now to catch the tram to Starr Gate↓↓
Now to get the bus to Lytham.
Catches the Stagecoach bus.
Gets to Lytham.
Charity Shop time.
Quick coffee break.
Back on the bus to look around St Annes.
The rain came down while we were on the bus.
When we got off, those dark clouds were still overhead us.
We did the circle of Charity Shops. 
 Nipped into Aldi before we caught the bus back to Blackpool.
We had to put up with a grumpy bus driver on the way back. I was glad to get off.
Walks over to the tram stop.
Hops aboard.
Goes past the large Disco ball.
Back to the hotel to unpack the trolley.
Cup of brew is needed.
We had a light tea.
Hubby is off to see Roy "Chubby" Brown on the North Pier.
I had my sequin trousers and nails to sort out.
Hubby goes off to get the tram.
I have a shower.
Hubby meets Chubby at the end of the show.
He has a photo taken and an autograph. 
I sorted out my sequin trousers.
Painted my nails.
Now to look into today's newspapers.
I keep the bed warm for when Hubby comes back.
He comes back and I go off like a light...Zzzz

More Sunshine, More Exploring....

 I have a large seashell collection, which I keep scattered on beaches all over the world. Maybe you've seen it? - Steven Wright
Welcome to my Hump of the Week in Blackpool
Up early for a early brew.
Dressed.
Breakfast.
Then out to get a tram...
Once we got off the tram, 
We get the bus to Lytham...
Once we get off, time to look around the Charity Shops. Loads of bargains.
We have a coffee, halfway round.
Back onto looking about..
 I overheard a conversation in one Charity Shop.
Customer to Sales Assistant:
"My husband pays £300 for a pair of trainers, and £100 for a new t-shirt..."
The Sales Assistant replied:
"Have you thought of visiting Charity Shops?"
Customer repiled:"Yes I do, but that Designer Charity Shop down the road was charging £10 for a second hand t-shirt, someone has already wore it"
I just shook my head and left the shop.
Now to walk to the park to have our lunch.
I'm glad we found some shade, as it was getting well warm.
Bobby Ball.
Now for a walk down the front...
We walks back to the bus stop.
We missed one bus back to Blackpool.
We caught the Stagecoach bus and we got into Blackpool in record time.
Now to get the tram...
We gets off at our tram stop.
We goes back to the B&B to unpack all our good things we got from Lytham.
We had our tea.
Back out for another walk about...
Back to the B&B to chill.....
Now to use that comfy bed...
