Rubbish Monday!

If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it - J.P Morgan
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
The sun was out at alast \o/
We were too late to do the Heardle.
I will do that later on.
Breakfast and Brew time.
The thermal vest still goes on.
Now to leave the house...
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Now off to work.
On the way, I had one car come off the slip road and nearly push me on the grass verge!
I witnessed that bad driving of theirs all the way to work!
Glad to get to work in one piece!
On goes those big  big sunglasses.
As well as my summer hat, and winter coat.
Goes and puts on my lights and gets my newspaper.
Swaps my newspaper for my big stick.
Now to turn on my other lights.
I have trouble with problem parkers again.
I had one scafford lorry parked on the double yellow lines opposite me, then one further down the road, causing the traffic to back up to me and having car stop in the Keep Clear space.
Still had car ignoring my big stick on the other side of the road.
Another lorry then parked up as the last one had.
Then causing more traffic problems.
Before leaving one of the passengers throws his breakfast out of the window all over the pavement!
At least I finished in one piece.
Back home.
Puts on the coffee machine.
Puts on the dishwasher.
Now for coffee!
Writes two blog posts up to liquid lunch.
Now to do the afternoon shift.
On goes my summer hat and winter coat.
I left off the gloves.
Now to go and turn on my lights.
Nips into the Charity Shop.
Had a good chat with everyone in there.
Except when one man from the Chip shop comes in and asks if they could knock some money off a coat they were selling.
I thought he was joking, but wasn't!
I had an experience with someone else trying to knock off some money off something in a Charity Shop some time ago.
From what I was told, he is always doing it!
I left to turn on my lights.
Goes back to Sexy Beast to pick up my big stick. 
I go and wait by the bench in the square.
Two regular friends didn't turn up.
My other two friends did turn up.
One was going to the Doctors as he is still unwell. I had a laugh with his wife until it was time for me to start.
Hopefully I will see them tomorrow.
Now to cope with the low lying sun.
Still had cars on the otherside of the road failing to stop.
It was quite quiet for a Monday!
At least I survived!
One friend turned up with his dog just as I finished. We had a little catch up what he had been doing over the weekend.
Hopefully we will have a bigger catch up tomorrow.
Off I went home.
Cup of brew followed.
I wrote another blog post up to tea.
Now to look into today's newspaper.

Comes back to get my big stick.
Goes over to the square where I am joined by two friends.My other friend joins us and says her husband is ill in bed after catching the flu.
It was time to start, I said Goodbye to everyone.
The dark clouds disapppered and the sun came out.
I stopped some cars, one white sports car was suddenly revving his engine as he didn't like to wait!
As soon as I got back on the pavement, he put his toe down and up the road he went!
One parent commented on the car driver's revving of the engine.
I responed to it, "He is making up for something!"
And I wiggled my little finger!
Still gave a few BOINGs out as some cars on the otherside of the road were failing to stop.
Finished in one piece.
Gets back to Sexy Beast.
My boss had tried to phone about a meeting she wants with me about the last time I was ill and the red flags on flagging up. 
Tomorrow before the afternoon shift the meeting will be.
Back home I go, and it starts to rain!
Cup of brew I need!

Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡

Gets to work.
All the waterproofs go on.
I go and put on my lights and  I gets the newspaper. Puts my newspaper in the car.
I go and put on my other lights.
As it was pouring with rain, I didn't hang about to take a picture of the tree.
I goes back to Sexy Beast to collect my big stick.
When it was time to start I walked over to my spot in the wind and rain.
We are going to have some fun today!
Because I couldn't stick my big stick out too far, car drivers were driving through without the BOING!
I was nice and dry in my coat, the only thing that was getting wet was my glasses!
I finished in one piece.
Back home I go.
Coffee machine went on.
Hung my wet coat in the Dining Room.
Loaded up the Dishwasher, put it on.
Washing machine went on twice.
Coffee time.
Now to write some blog posts up to lunch!
Liquid lunch time!
We have blue skies now :)
Now out to do the afternoon shift.
My big winter coat was a lot less wet now.
There was no room in the car park where I normally park.
I squeezed Sexy Beast into a tight parking space.
(Using both mirrors)
I got my  Winter coat, winter hat, and gloves.
I put on both sets of lights.
Sat back in Sexy Beast, and soon took of my Winter Coat, as I was getting a damp bum from the damp coat! 
One friend came with his dog.
We had a nice rabbit in the square.
Said goodbye to my friend and got on with the job.
He was the first one I crossed over.
Oh dear here we go again.
As it was quite windy I couldn't stick my big stick out, and car drivers weren't stopping on my side or over the road.
Someone had to reverse as they stopped in the Keep Clear space!
At least I finished in one piece!
Back home I go.
Cup of brew is needed.
More blogging to do.
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 when he came home.
He had pizza.
I had a nice salad.
Afterwards he went to see his mate who like WWE wrestling.
I looked into today's newspaper.
