 Mother's Day.

Welcome to my Mothering Sunday 🎕

I had a lovely brew with breakfast.

Thermal vest went on.

I had a lovely present from one son.

My other son got me a ticket for Craft Event for last Sunday at the NEC.

(I couldn't go because of I had Covid)

I hope my mum likes her balloon.

Now we are off to look around a car boot!

In need of a coffee....

Lots of stalls to walk around.

Pots for the garden, 50p each.

Free F1 Books.

And↓

We walked around twice.

Talked to one woman I know from my Lollypop job.She asked where I had been?

"Covid."

"There is a lot going round,"She said.

Back to the car, moving onto the Recycle Place in Stratford.

I got a nice bit of LLoyd Loom for £5.

On the way home, we got stuck in 5 way lights!

One of the queues when we went past was nearly a mile long.

Goes to the Co-op to get reduced veg for the soup this week.

Nice drink & nibble when we got out!

Gets back home to unload the car.

I start chopping the veg for the Soup Maker.

Puts the shopping away, and all the things we got from the car boot.

Soup time!

Afterwards, it was time to sort out Sexy Beast.

Checked the tyres.

Put a little bit of fuel in.

Then back home.

Took all the washing off the line.

Sorted it all out.

I left hubby to sort out the tea for tonight.

I had a blog post from yesterday to write.

Once it was done,

Tea was ready.

Roast Pork Tea.

Yum.

Quick look in the newspaper afterwards.
