Welcome to my Saturday 👯
I have my interview to be my Ward Councillor on my local Council later....
(Fun,fun fun!)
Nice brew with warm hug.
Breakfast.
We did the Saturday quiz and got 8 out 15.
Dressed.
Quick coffee...
Now out for a little ride...
We got the newspapers.
I got chatting to a parent who I knew from doing my previous Lollipop job. From last Wednesday, they have been told (The staff in Tesco), they will refuse to serve people if they don't wear a facemask.)
Now on to get some meat.
Once done there.
Just to do a bit of top up shopping until tomorrow.
Gets to pay for the shopping, then the red light goes off...
Back home..
Nice bit of soup to warm up with.
Got the tablet ready for the interview.
I got changed.
Pity I can't wear a badge which I found to wear at the interview↓
Things didn't go as planned 😨
I was second to be interviewed.
During the interview,
I was asked "If I would go for another ward, if I didn't get this one?"
(Red lights flashing!)
Waited in the waiting room to find out my fate.
My gut feeling says no.....
As normal, I didn't set my expections to high and my gut was right....
I didn't get chosen!
My interview notes went into the recycle bin!
Now to wait for the gloating to start that I didn't get it!
My hubby was quite upset I didn't get chosen.
I gave him a big hug and sloppy 💋
As we have watched "House of Cards", I am glad I am out of it!
Tea time.
The steak was awful 😶
Quick catch up of the newspapers.

There was some nice baking going on...
They looked and smelt really nice!
It was still sunny when I left.
More singing to do...
Back home in the sunshine.

Hopefully this one will last a long time too!
I had a message from my Lollypop Boss.
I'm back next week!
I have a quick lunch↓
My youngest brother turns up with some forms for me to fill in.
He was holding a McDonald's coffee.
"Where is mine?" I ask.
"You have a kettle to make a coffee!".
I will remember this next time he demands a cup of tea when he visits!
I found out why I haven't been having no paperwork from the solicitor as,
She has put my address as my younger brothers!!!
Next I find out, all the fixtures and fittings in my dad's house is in the price of the house. Nothing was said to me about it until now.
My youngest brother said:
"Don't moan, we got an extra £10,000 above the market price!"
I did put down on the paperwork that the upstairs bathroom the Prodical brother put in, it isn't finished.
He has still put an invoice to the Solicitor for the finished bathroom, which isn't finished!
I emailed the Solicitor to see if we are going to have the money from my late dad's bank accounts. She said in a few weeks time....
Now she is saying, she will put it together with the money from the house instead....
Great!
I was glad when he left!
I wasn't in the mood for sewing after that!
I got more food shopping online that will help keep down our food shopping at the weekend.

There is nothing better than singing in heavy rain while driving...
It's a pity I didn't bring my rain mac now.
I had a quick look across the fields of fun
Yet another bad day...
When things are late, then everything goes wrong...
It was still raining when I got into Sexy Beast.
