Trying To Avoid The Tank Drivers!

It may be that your sole purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others - Anon

Welcome to my Tuesday vibes 🎉

Brrrr it's a bit cold!

Let's do the Heardles to warm up!

Heardle 60s:

My results:

Breakfast and Brew time.

The thermal vest went on as well as the layers!

Hat, scarf, and big coat went on.

Freeezing.....

Uncovered Sexy Beast.

Gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.

Went the long way round to work.

On goes two hats, winter coat, and big winter gloves.

Gets newspaper.

The moon is still out↓

Swaps the newspaper for my big stick.

Goes and turns on my lights.

Woo hoo there is a new pillar box topper!

Turns on my lights.

Now to start work.

Oh dear, the tank drivers are back! 

How can you drive when you can't see out of your windscreen?

A few Boings given out for good measure!

At least the sun was out, it was still a bit cold.

Good job my coat keeps me warm!

Finished in one piece.

Back home.

Coffee machine was put on.

As well as the Dishwasher.

Now to warm up with a coffee!

Now to get out the red pot!

From the Magic Bag,

I used all the leeks, carrots, and Broccoli.

I chopped up some mushrooms, red onions and garlic.

Added to the frying pan with the beef.

Once it was done, in the oven it went.

Peeled the remaining potatoes and made a mash with them once they were done.

I wrote a little bit of blog from yesterday.

Ran out of time.

Liquid lunch time!

Now ready to leave for the afternoon shift.

Talk about bad driving I experienced on the way to work. Car drivers just pulling out of junctions!

Glad to get to work in one piece!

I got my two hats, winter coat and winter gloves.

Went to turn on my lights and got chatting to one friend walking his dog. He is off to Aldi to look for some bargains with is wife.

"Don't spend too much !" I laughed.

Turned on my lights.

I met up with my two friends for a little bit of Rabbit.

One of my friends paid £25 for a round Bread Bin.

Like the one below↓

I did tell him I had a few spare if he wanted one.

It was time for me to start.

The low lying sun is going to be a problem!

I said goodbye to my friends.

Let the fun start!

I had to tell a parent off, as she crossed into the road before I got into the middle of the road.

I said,"They don't stop for me and I have a big stick!"

I still had to give out some boings....for those cars on the otherside of the road!

I finished in one piece!

Back home I go.

Brew time.

Writes yesterday's blog post.

Then got the tea on the go.

Hubby comes home and has a sloppy wet one 💋

Tea is ready ;)

Yum!

As of every year the list goes down every year.

Now out to enjoy the afternoon shift! 

I only put on one hat, winter coat and winter gloves goes on. Turns on my lights, and returns to sit in Sexy Beast until my friends appear.

One friend appears and we go have a rabbit in the square. We are then joined by another friend and his dog.

The time goes on, and then it's time for me to start my shift.

I say goodbye to my friends, and so I start.

Here we again.....

Refusing to stop on the otherside of the road.

Pity I haven't got a much longer big stick!

Then it's stopping in the Keep Clear space.

I was offered free milk by one of the houseowners on the otherside of the road.

"Yes Please!" I say.

Finished in one piece.

Collected my free milk and back to Sexy Beast.

Back home I go.

Now for a cup of brew.

I put the multi-coloured pasta in a saucepan of  boiling water.

Once that was done, added the homemade tomato sauce, gave it a big stir.

Hubby came home and a had a big sloppy one 😘

Tea was served up.

Everyone ate their's \o/
