Time For The T-Shirt To Get Wet!

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back? - Steven Wright 
Welcome to a Hot Sweaty Tuesday 👙
It still was well warm when I went back upstairs.
Heardle time.
Heardle 60s:
My son's answers:
Brew with Breakfast.
Got into my white clothes again!
Well warm again!
Outside for some fresh air!
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Goes and gets my newspaper and next door's magazine. None was delivered.
Goes back to Sexy Beast, to put on the Summer Coat, and big stick.
Turns on my lights.
Now to rock 'n' roll.
There was hardly no traffic!
One dad I was talking to yesterday about not wearing his sun hat, actually did wear it.
It is now getting well warm!
Crossed about 20 parents and children.
Goes into Newsagents again to see if they have got the papers delivers.
Nope.
Goes back to Sexy Beast.
Drives down to Co-op to get my newspaper.
Back home.
Coffee machine was put on.
Down to put my hot feet into cold water.
Coffee time.
It's going to be warm later!
I stay outside until the sun comes round.
It's getting warm now!
Washes my white cotton trousers and puts them on the line.
I leave my summer coat and cap to soak in the bowl of cold water.
Light lunch time.
White trousers had dried.
Takes 2 bottles of water, wet summer coat and cap for round 2.
Puts on damp summer coat with wet summer hat.
Puts on Lights.
Buys a much needed lollypop.
Collects big stick.
Goes into the park and waits in the shade.
One friend arrives.
Now for a little rabbit...
Walks over to my spot.
Says goodbye to my friend.
Hardly no traffic!
Gave one BOING out to one car that drove under my big stick!
One dad wanted a wet t-shirt competition with me.
I replied, "I always win them, and even better for wearing this coat!"
One parent gave me a bottle of water which was nice.
Some parents wanted to get me a ice-cream.
I had to decline as I'm not allowed to eat while I am on duty. 
One Grandparent walked past me and said:
"I miss your dad!"
I replied to him, "So do I!"
While I was crossing a dad over, he was telling is child, they were going to visit his granddad.
The child said "No!"
I replied,"No means yes!"
The dad laughed, and said:
"See if Granddad has any ice-cream!" 
"Don't forget to jump on Granddad!" I replied.
Finished in one piece.
Now back home!
Straight into a cold shower when I got back.
Followed by a much needed ice lolly and cold drink!
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
We had a light tea!
Quick look into today's newspaper.
