The Devil Wears Primark!

The wife said she's like to eat out for a change, so I moved the dining room table into the garden - Les Dawson.

Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈

Nice cup of tea to start the day.

Dressed.

Nice breakfast.

Now to get the tram down to Starr Gate.

We get off at Starr Gate.

We got the bus to Lytham..

Nice bus ride in the sunshine!

Once we got there, time to look around the Charity Shops.

There is loads and not too expensive!

Got loads of lovely things!

We had a takeaway coffee and sat in the square before we caught the bus to St Annes.

When we got off, it time to have a look around the Charity Shops. Loads of bargains to be had!

Went to pay a visit to see Les Dawson.

Then back on the bus to Starr Gate.

Waited for a Tram to arrive.

Off at South Shore, 

Back to the Hotel to get ready for our night out!

The Sequins went on!

We go and try and get the tram from South Shore to the North Pier. Every tram was full.

I got some lovely comments about my outfit.

We caught the tram down to Starr Gate.

All the small kids lovely my outfit.

We caught the tram to the North Pier, and then walked up to where we are going to have a great laugh and good time. 

Funny Girls Time.

The man on reception was wearing Devil Horns.

"Nice outfit,"I said.

He said, "The Devil wears Primark!" 

The other man on reception said about my outfit:

"Better to stand out than bland in!" 

We have a lovely meal!

Now to get our seats.

The lovely host and DJ of the evening was Zoe.

Hubby went up with a request.

It was read out:

"To my lovely wife who is dressed head to toe in sequins.Love you loads."

Zoe replied to that was by saying:

"They do sequins in New Look now?"

The song she played was:

Now to watch the show!

There was a woman celebrating her 40th Birthday with her friends. She kept hugging me when she want past. She loved my outfit. She bought me a drink. When she fell down and couldn't get up later, I helped her get up.I gave her friend her mobile phone, and asked:

 "If the Birthday girl was alright?"

"She is fine, we are celebrating again tomorrow night!"

I replied,"Wait she hit the Hawaii 5-0 Birthday!"

"You celebrating it tonight?" I was asked.

"No last February, have a good time tomorrow night!" I replied.

While the last bit of show was on, the women we were sharing the Booth, got up. The one woman who was sat next me, suddenly said to me as she was on the way out:

"Everyone will see you tonight wearing that outfit on the way home!"

I hope so!

We left to catch the tram from the North Pier.

Back to the hotel.

Off went the sequins!

Now to turn off the light 

&

 Enjoy the nice bed!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trying Out The Buses....

When having my portrait painted I don't want justice, I want mercy - Billy Hughes.

Welcome to my Monday 🎪

Up for a much needed brew.

We did the Heardles.

Heardle 60s was:

Washed and dressed.

Now for a lovely breakfast.

Goes back up to the bedroom.

Rain macs needed.

Waits for the tram to Star Gate.

Gets off at Star Gate,

Crosses the road, to get the bus to Lytham.

Bus arrives.

We sit up the top at the front of the bus.

After 20 minutes we arrive in Lytham.

The first charity shop we go in, my youngest son wins 4 prizes on the Tombola.

He wanted that big teddy, but didn't win it.

We carry on looking around Lytham.

In one charity shop I got chatting to a woman (Who said she was 71 years old and happily divorced from her husband)

She had a lovely black Lab dog.Who liked plenty of fuss. She gave him a better life from the bad life he had. She has had him for 4 years and called him Tom. We had a good chat for half an hour. Then off for a much needed coffee!

One son went back to the previous Charity Shop to buy a huge grey Teddy Bear.

We caught the bus to St Annes.

Time to look around.

We found a nice takeaway place for lunch.

We sat in the park and ate our lunch.

Afterwards we carried on exploring St Annes, and picking up more bargains.

We caught the bus back to Blackpool.

Got on the tram from Star Gate, nearly getting to South Shore, when the tram driver slammed on the brakes, the conductor went flying.

Some kids were walking in front of the tram, four made it over, the fifth kid decided at the very last minute not to risk it and did a U turn.

The tram driver just put the brake on the tram stopped straight away. We had to wait for 10 minutes for a replacement tram driver. 

We set back off, and we got off a South Shore.

The tram number was 001.

Yesterday when we got off at South Shore, a man tried to take a selfie with the tram moving off and nearly hitting him in the process.

A blast of horn from the tram driver moved him out of the way.

Note to self, keep away from 001

Walked to see my old mate who has a 4* hotel and used to work at Royal Mail.

He said to my son with the big Teddy Bear,

"You won the teddy?"

My son replied, "No, I bought it!".

We had a good long chat, with coffee, and got talking to one of his guests that was stopping there. After 2 hours, I wished him well and hope to see him next year as well.

We get the tram from South Shore to the Cabin stop.

Back to the B&B.

Unpacked all our bargains.

Light tea.

Hubby goes off to take some lovely photo of the sunset↓

Meanwhile I have a quick look in the newspaper.
