Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈

No sunrise :(

However older son became a Councillor for Church Hill.

It was a bit quiet for traffic.

(Not like yesterday!)

Last minute braking and BOINGs given out.

Finished in one piece.

Off home I go.

There were two Council vans over the drive.

I went round to my neighbour's house and two workmen were in there deciding on what room to start on.

I asked if they could just move the van up a bit so I could get my car on the drive.

They told me the kitchen has to be ripped out, and the shed has to go.

The van was moved down and I parked on the drive.

Now for coffee!

There was lots of drilling, and banging coming from next door.

(Wait to see if the bamboo is going to be chopped down)

Household chores done.

Downloaded photos for yesterday's blog.

Liquid lunch time.

It was forecasted to rain at the time I start the afternoon shift.

It was too warm to wear those lumo trousers.

Those dark clouds look grim↓

Had to listen to a good song on repeat,

Can you guess which one it was?

(It's at the end of this blog post)

I puts on my Summer Coat and Summer hat on.

Goes and puts on both sets of lights.

I visited the Charity Shop for a rabbit..

The Corner shop was closed to get the Post Office fitted in it.

(Post Office opens on May 19th)

Goes back to Sexy Beast.

I takes the lining out of my winter coat.

I put that on, and my waterproof shoes as those dark clouds are coming over.

None of my friends, came for a rabbit.

I'm need of a Boost now! 

One school was let out early.

I goes over to my spot.

Soon as I started the rain came down....

It rained for ten minutes.

Stopped.

Still had cars stopping in the Keep Clear space!

Lots of BOINGs given out for cars not stopping.

Then it started to rain again!

Grrrrr

Finished in one piece.

I got talking to someone about how much fun I am going to have being an Councillor for over an hour!

Wishes them a good Bank Holiday Monday.

Back home I go.

I went to see what the Council had been doing to next door's house.

All the kitchen cabinets had been ripped out.

The three interior doors were outside.

The fireplace was ripped out.

There was a crab in a bag on the floor↓

And some Cinnamon sticks if anyone is interested?

One friend came with another character who was trying to sell her dodgy tobacco.

When I bent down into Sexy Beast, he pressed his groin to my arse.

I suddenly got up and said to him:

"Be careful you might get up with a brown winkle if you keep that up!"

Fetched my big stick and walked off.

Then we bumped into another friend walking his dog. He told us of how a pot of paint was knocked off the step ladder, and it ended all over his blue bedroom carpet.

My friend commented on that:

"If you are awkward, what a way to show it!"

I fetched my big stick and went with my friend for coffee.

Our other friend arrived for her mince pie.
