So Many Doing Bad Parking Today!

I'm a minor player in my own life story - Tony Wilson
 Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Warm hug to start Hump Day with.
Brew with breakfast.
It was still dark when I opened the curtains.
(But it remain dry I hope)
Dressed.
I gave hubby a sloppy wet πŸ’‹when I left.
I went the other way to work as due to the Traffic lights at the bottom of the road.
I had 4 layers on under my Summer Coat.
Now to turn on my lights...
Let the fun start....🍭
Two van decided to park on the double yellow lines opposite. Causing problems with the traffic and for me!
Plus cars were leaving it late using their brake pedal!
One flat bed lorry failed to stop and nearly hit the traffic lights in the back of his lorry as he went past!
"Boing!"
One lorry driver put his hand up as his went past me, while I had my stick up in the air!
At least I finished one piece!
No rabbiting either!
I nipped into Morrisons to get a few things...
Singing along with Michael McDonald while going around the aisles.
Some good Dvds....↓
&
A great Cd↓
Got my bits and bobs.
I picked up my neighbour's magazine and newspaper on the way home.
Oh dear, lorry over the drive yet again...
I parked over the road and refused to move!
The lorry driver moved so I could get on my drive.
He then parked opposite my drive...
So why couldn't do that in the first place!
I puts on my coffee machine.
I go round and give my neighbour his magazine and a bit of chat.
When I come back,
Coffee time!
Then I wrote yesterday's blog post up to lunch.
Light lunch 
Then it was time for part two.
I took off one layer of clothing.
I put on  the Summer coat.
Put on my lights.
Then had a good rabbit with my two friends.
Then I had a disagreement with hubby via text message.....over laddergate from last night!
Then it was time to start the afternoon shift 🍭
Cars drivers were actually stopping for once!
(That's even lowering the stick down either!)
Finished in one piece.
Now back home.
Jacket potatoes were put in the oven.
Now to take out all my stress with my sewing machine!
Two more draught excluders made..
Hubby came home, said sorry for last night.
I gave him a big warm bearhug and a big sloppy wet πŸ’‹
The males of the family had beans on jacket potato.
I had salad on mine.
With a much needed brew!
While hubby and son went to the Storage Unit to collect more stuff to put in the loft.
I quickly looked in today's newspaper!
Chris Farlowe (born John Henry Deighton) is an English rock, blues and soul singer. He is best known for his hit single "Out of Time" written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, which rose to #1 in the UK Singles Chart in 1966, and his association with bands Atomic Rooster, the Thunderbirds and Colosseum.

He is 81 years old 🎈
John Ford Coley  is an American singer, classically trained pianist, guitarist, actor, and author most known for his partnership in the musical duo England Dan & John Ford Coley.

Once the things had been put in the loft.
We carried on watching Kenny Everett.... 
Now for some Sleep tea...
I am expecting a parcel to be delivered by Fed Ex.....let's hope they find me!

Thanking My Lucky Stars!!

  The largest turnout at elections is always where there is only one candidate - Peter Ustinov
Welcome to my Thursday Fun πŸ’€
Nice warm hug to start the day...
&
Strong cup of brew as well.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
The kids get a wake up call...
Plus everyone gets lots of wet πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹ before I left the house.
No big big sunglasses this morning.
Winter coat on..
Tree pic.
It doesn't help that my Lollipop stick keeps turning invisible....
One woman driver goes past my stick everyday,
and never stops!
I however, stopped the blue car that nearly killed me last Friday morning again!
The nice lambo went past me....
Plenty of voom voom....
I am hoping for nicer weather for the afternoon shift...
Finishes in one piece..
Now off to vote...
Facemask on, and brought my own pen!
Made my four crosses on three ballot papers, then into the box they went.
I then got the newspaper and some milk from the Paper Shop.
Still nothing happening to my late dad's house.
Back home.
For a much needed coffee↓
 I pan fried the pork chops.
Fried up the remaining black pudding.
Made some sage and onion stuffing.
All put in the oven ready for later.
I was going to repair my son's coat pocket by sewing it back on...
However, he chose it to wear it to school instead.
Now to blog, blog blog about the fun I had on Hump Day!
My Hobbycraft order arrived!
The case for my sewing machine!
Also boxset of 3 films arrived.
We will be watching them at the weekend.
Just in time for lunch...
I was going to wear the lumo trousers as it said on the weather it might rain...
Now to leave the house.
I will wear the boots instead...
Tries to find a place to park near my Lollipop spot...
No room to park anywhere....
Had to park in the Co-op instead.
I had to walk to my spot.
I was chatting with one of the parking marshalls who was directing traffic on where to park in the  car park, so they can have their covid vaccine.
He told a few stories of people trying to park their cars....
Mature women of a certain age.
One dark night, a older woman was coming for her covid vaccine, parked her car on the steps.
There are no steps in the car park...
The steps leading up the road she parked her car. 
The RAC had to winch her car up from the steps.
The other story was a mature woman went through the wrong gate (Way out gate), nearly scraped her Land Rover in the process.
She did scrape her car on the wall while trying to park it.... 
I had my winter coat, gloves, and winter hat, when the sun came out, and I was getting well warm. 
What didn't help the situation, I was in the middle of the road, when just as I was about to walk back to the pavement, the male car driver behind me, decided to drive on nearly taking me with him!
He slammed on the brakes.
I having a lucky escape, pointed to the pavement and said straight to him...
"What are you doing? I am going back to the pavement!"
 Once back to the pavement, he turned into the car park to have his Covid vaccine! 
I just about finished in one piece!
Back home.
For coffee and crumpets...
Now to go back out with a CD of 70s tunes..
I drop off the younger son to help Joe with his fight to be elected back on the Council.
Now to get out the skip ready for work.
At least it's not raining!
Finished ....
Back onto the singing along...
Back home.
I have my tea.
Younger son comes back with one of the leaflets he delivered↓
We both have our tea.
Now to take off those smoking hot pair of roller boots I have had on all day!
Quick look into today's newspaper..
Sleep Tea Time.
Friday Feeling is back tomorrow 🎈
