Nearly Got Me!

The English really aren't interested in talking to you unless you've been to school or to bed with them - Lady Nancy Keith
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
It's really cold outside....
More layers to add...
We got up early to do the Heardles:

Breakfast and Brew.
Thermal vest goes on as well as lots of layers.
Just looked outside....
Good job I covered up Sexy Beast.
A bit nippy out here!
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I leave.
Now to go the long way round to work.
At least the sun is coming up!
Big coat, two hats, and big winter gloves go on.
I gets today's newspaper.
Swaps it for the big stick.
Now to go and turn on my lights.
I turn on my lights.
Now let's go to work 🍭
Let the fun start!
It was tank time.
Some just scraped a bit of ice of their windscreen!
Then it gets better.
First a blue attempted to mount the pavement to go around me, then realised it was bin day and 3 bins covering the pavement.
Back on the road you go love!
Next bit of fun I had was:
I stopped a old woman in her car to cross a parent over, when I got back on the pavement, she drove up a bit and started having a go at me for something, jabbing her finger down and gums going.....
Pity she didn't wind the window down, I could hear about the problem I had caused!
I said nothing and carried on waiting for the next person to cross over!
Gave out three Boings as well.
Finished in one piece.
Now onto Argos to pick up something I bought yesterday.

Back home I go.
Puts the coffee machine on.

Coffee time.
Once the dishwasher had finished and cooled down. 
Unloaded and put back on.

Liquid lunch time.
Now to leave to do the afternoon shift.
I tried to park in the car park. There was no room :(
Parked around the corner.
Winter coat, two hats and gloves goes on.
Goes and puts on my lights.
Goes back to Sexy Beast to pick up my big stick.
One friend arrives, we go and look for more bargains in the Bakery Sale.
Back outside as three more friends arrived for a little rabbit!
The low lying sun is back again.
I said goodbye to all my friends.
Now to do the afternoon shift.
People were actually stopping my side of the road. No Boings were actually handed out for once!
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Cup of brew is needed.
Emptied dishwasher again.
Cleaned out my coffee machine.
Now to chill....
Nice easy tea.
