One Way Ticket!

 You're not famous until my mother has heard of you - Jay Leno
Welcome to the Friday Feeling 🎈
We got up early to do the Heardles:
Heardle 60s:
My answers:
Breakfast and Brew.
Then it was thermal vest and lots of layers time.
Coat on, and now to leave the house!
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.
I have to go a different way to work, otherwise I am going to be stuck in 3 sets of traffic lights!
Once on the duel carriageway, a white van tries to move me out of the way as he comes off the slip road. Then sitting on my arse all the way until he overtook me, then goes back in the right hand lane to turn right at the upcoming island.
I was to arrive at work in one piece!
On goes my winter hats, winter coat and winter gloves.
I gets my newspaper.
Swaps it for my big stick.
Now to turn on my lights.
Now to go to work...🍭
Crossing the first person over.
I'm in the middle of the road, the blue VW car on my left, puts her foot down and drives past my outstretched hand, to a couple metres down the road and stops opposite the coffee shop!
My boss appears to tell me someone has put a complaint against me.
"Really?" I ask.
"Someone accused me of walking out in front of their car, then putting the stick right in front of the windscreen!"
My answer to that is:
"I never walk in front of car -
One Way Ticket to Heaven.
My stick goes up high and then comes down.
She was probably pissed she couldn't do the limbo dance under my stick!"
My boss was witnessing a convoy of 3 cars on the otherside of the road not stopping and ignoring my raised stick!
I am still needed on Wednesday afternoon, even though one school is open.
Still had cars on my side not stopping.
I told her about the blue mini failing to stop, and my big stick having metal teeth leaving a nice pattern on the side of the car!
She told me not to try to hit the car windscreens.
If they drive into it, it's their fault!
Someone else had to put up with what I have too↓
If I had done it, there would have been a large hole in the windscreen!!!
At least I finished in one piece.
I said goodbye to my boss.
Back home
Coffee machine went on.
Tried to put the Dish washer on and the extension lead blew!
Great!
Ordered another one to pick up later on.
Coffee time.
My friend popped around for a yak and coffee.
Had a good yak!
Thanked her for coming round and wished her a good weekend.
Liquid lunch time.
My younger son comes back from son and got some bargains from Lidl.
Now out to do the afternoon shift.
On goes my winter hats, winter coat, and gloves.
I go and turn on my lights.
I collects my big stick.
Now for a little rabbit in the square with my friends.
Photo time :)
We had a good chat until it was time to start.
I wished them a good weekend.
I started to tell the parents about the complaint I had.
They couldn't believe it, especially when they said "I walked in front of their car!!!"
"But your stick goes out first"!They said.
That's why I want a 8 foot stick, so I can reach the cars over the road! 
Finished in one piece.
Back home I go.
I picks up the extension lead from Screw Fix.
The Dish washer was put on with no problems!
Now for a much needed brew!
I wrote two more blog posts.
Published 8 blog posts.
Now for a bit of tea involving pasta!
Now to look into today's newspaper.
