Then it started to rain!
The Hall car park wasn't open,
So I parked around the corner.
On goes the boots, two winter hats, and waterproof gloves.
It was raining a bit more heavily...
I turned on my lights.
Now to have some fun..🍭
Lots of rain, and wind.
I had a few drivers doing the Limbo dance under my stick!
One car driver had to brake hard on the otherside!
I was glad to finish in one piece!
I got back to Sexy Beast. 
Both winter hats were wet, gloves were soggy, and the top of my socks were damp!
I picked up the newspaper on the way home.
Coffee machine went on.
Now to tidy up the Living Room after last night!
My hat and gloves were put on the radiator to dry out later on.

Now for Round 2.
I got a spare winter hat, and the lightweight gloves.
On to put on my lights.
The wind was getting up....
A group of teenagers went past me, while I was waiting for my friends to arrive.
One said:
"Can I have a lick of your lollipop stick?"
"The taste is disgusting,"I replied.
I had a rabbit with my two friends.
I said goodbye to my friends.
The low lying sun came out.
It was just that the wind was getting up!
My lollipop stick was trying to dance all by itself.
One car done the Limbo dance under my stick.
I was glad to be finished in one piece!

When I Walk In The Room, I Just Have To ....

 If at first you don't succeed, cheat. - Red Buttons
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Warm hug with Brew.
Breakfast.
Thermal vest goes on.....
Dressed.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before I leave.
I had to park elsewhere as the hall was closed.
It was quite warm, so no need for gloves!
Turns on my lights.
Now let's get ready to roll...🍭
Cars and vans failing to stop!
Some have to do emergancy stops!
Some parents are still chancing it by crossing into moving traffic instead of using me!
At least I survived in one piece!
Nips into Co-op to get some bits....
Saves £6.05 on my shopping bill :)
Next onto Screwfix.
Henry the Hoover!
While in the queue, I here a great song playing, So I start singing along, the man looks around at me....
He must want to join in I thought!
I collects my order.
The £5 off my order helped!
Next to pick up my newspaper and my neighbour's magazine.
While I was waiting, a great song came on, and I started to sing-along...
The two men in front started to look around to see where the singing was coming from.
They looked at me, and I kept on singing along!
"Your happy!" I was told when I paid for my things.
"I am now after doing some singing!" I replied.
Just before I left, I joined in with Belinda Carlisle
Back home.
Coffee machine goes on.
Empties the tumble drier.
Loads up the dish washer and puts it on.
Sorts out the food in the fridge.
Recycling get put in the green bin.
(Our 3 recycling bins are being emptied tomorrow) 
Now for some coffee.
I though writing yesterday's blog post would only take an hour, it took longer!
Right up to lunch, and I still hadn't published it!
Light lunch.
Now for part two....
I was singing along with a great song on the way to work.
Such a Big Tune, it was repeated four times it was good...
The song?
At the end of this blog post...
It was warm enough to wear gloves!
Turned on my lights.
Got chatting to my two friends.
Just before I was due to start, I notice a Argos and Amazon van parking on the double yellow lines over the road where I was due to start.
I said goodbye to my friends.
Afternoon shift.
Still having problems with car drivers not stopping.
At least I finished in one piece.
Home time.
Time for a much needed brew!
I finished and published yesterday's blog post.
Now to get on with tonight's tea.
Opened a cupboard door, my oval dish fell out and broke into 3 bits!
It didn't help cutting open my finger while picking up one piece of it, blood everywhere!
Once it stopped, put a plaster on it, now to carry on with the tea.
It was ready before Hubby came home.
When he did come back from work, he had to warm his up in the microwave!
Four plates were empty!
Quick look in today's newspaper.
