Hello Arsehole!

Always be ready to speak your mind and a base man will avoid you - William Blake
Welcome to my lockdown Thursday🎈
I had a much needed hug and cup of tea↓
 I had breakfast.
Got dressed.
Now out for the daily walk↓
  Trolley watch again↓
 Gets back home in the sunshine↓
 Hubby goes back to work.
I have a quick read in the newspaper↓
Jack Bruce, was a Scottish singer-songwriter, musician and composer. He gained popularity as the lead vocalist and bass guitarist of British rock band Cream. After the group disbanded in 1968, he pursued a solo career and also played with several bands.He would have been 77 years old 🎈 
 He died aged 71 in 2014.
 B.B. King, was an American singer-songwriter, guitarist, and record producer. King introduced a sophisticated style of soloing based on fluid string bending and shimmering vibrato that influenced many later blues electric guitar players. King was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987.He died aged 89 in 2015.
  I tidy up the Dining room.
Sorted out the 1950s cupboard which has all my pans in.

Then sorts out all my cups and the mug trees.
Makes more room in the kitchen.
The washing machine had been on.
All the washing put on the on the line to drive.
Light lunch needed now after all that↓
 I had a email from the Solicitor.
She had looked through my late dad's bank statements and found no payment to my arsehole brother for the boiler and putting in the bathroom.
I hope he chokes on that extra money from my late dad's estate....
He had plenty of time to give those invoices to my dad while he was still alive.
I got in touch with my younger brother.He wasn't happy about it either.
He doesn't know what to say to his brother when he sees him next.
"Easy, say hello Arsehole!"
To keep mind off arseholes I am related to .
A quick play with Kenny↓ 
 
 Now for tea at 3pm↓
 We got 3/6 on the TV Themes Quiz.
Elderflower and Lemon Cake↓
 I made a pastry tart which contained tomato, chilli pesto, spinach, mushrooms and courgettes.
We had our tart with sweet potato fries.

One of my sons asked what pastry I used for the tart?
"Puff!" I replied.
Then off to work I go↓ 
 
 One plane is coming in↓
 Some nice music to sing along with↓
It's still daylight when I got home↑
