Time For The Rabbit To Come Out!

You don't stop laughing because you grow old.You grow old because you stop laughing - Michael Pritchard
 Welcome to my Saturday πŸ’œ
Brew with warm hug.
Breakfast.

It was a lot warmer than it has been.
All the curtains were opened followed by the windows.
Now out for a little ride.

Gets newspaper, see Joe and Pete.
Gave them the cake.
Back home for a coffee.
We has soup for lunch.
Hubby wrote out our shopping list.
Our youngest son went and collected next door's shopping list.
While they were out shopping.
I wrote yesterday's blog post.
Done Jukebox on my Twitter. 
Hubby and son came back.
In our local Morrisons, some people were not wearing masks, two teenagers were snogging down one aisle!
Unpacked the shopping.
Now for sausages and mash!
Hubby had bought a new film for us to watch.
Good film :)
Afterwards I slipped into something a lot warmer!
Quick look into today's newspaper.
Scott Walker (born Noel Scott Engel) was an American-born British singer-songwriter, composer and record producer. Walker was known for his baritone voice and an unorthodox career path which took him from 1960s teen pop icon to 21st-century avant-garde musician. Walker's success was largely in the United Kingdom, where his first four solo albums reached the top ten. He lived in the UK from 1965 and became a UK citizen in 1970.
He would have been 78 years old 🎈
He died aged 76 in 2019.


Crystal Gayle (born Brenda Gail Webb) is an American country music singer and songwriter. She is best known for her 1977 crossover hit, "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue." Initially, Gayle's management and record label was the same as that of her oldest sister, Loretta Lynn.
She is 70 years old 🎈

David  Harman, known professionally as Dave Dee  was an English singer-songwriter, musician, A&R manager, fundraiser and businessman. He was the frontman for the 1960s pop band Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich.
He died on this day in 2009 aged 67.
Now for some Sleep Tea.
Off to bed with the rabbit!

In Need Of A Good Shake!

The intermediate stage between socialism and capitalism is alcoholism -Norman Brenner
About time it arrived↓
I was awake even before the alarm clock went off....
Half an hour of cuddling..
Then it's up ↗↗↗↗
Superman t-shirt put on...
Now for the important cup of tea...↓
 I look at the weather...
Rain is forecasted...
I gave everyone sloppy πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹ before I left the house.
 Where has the rain gone?
 
 I put on the waterproof trousers,
Just in case it does rain..
 Lets the chaos start....
The blue van with a trailer pulled up on the double yellow lines again...↓
The bus couldn't get to the bus stop.So dropped off its passengers behind the trailer.
Then the bus went on the wrong side of the road as it couldn't get past the van!
There was a lorry delivering supplies to the supermarket further down the road.
Traffic was everywhere...
The van then reversed the trailer on the driveway, blocking the road.
Then as it reversed back on to the pavement, it nearly knocked down a parent and his son!
I just shook my head in disbelief.
Then the van moved off the lines and parked over the road...
Now I can see up the road! 
Then the non-stopping starts!
Some people have too much Friday Feeling🎈
I finish in one piece.
Now for more singing....
My B3 space is still free for me!
 Now for some Webbs Experience..

I said goodbye to my friend.
More singing to do on the way to work↓
 Quick look at the newspaper↓

I might have had a red face when I got finished, I cooled down in the rain...
More, more singing along in the rain on the way home↓
Rain time↓
 
 I'm in need of coffee!
Back out in the sexy trousers↓
 Time to shake it...
 Is it going to rain???
Of course it did....
It was getting dark and wet..
I finished in one piece..
Back home...
Nice trail of rain water to the front door!
