More Magic To Give Out!

Everything takes longer than it should it should except sex - Murphy's Law
Welcome to my Magic Saturday💥
Breakfast and Brew.
We listened to the "Sounds of the 60s"
UK top 3 from 1963.

Quick coffee
Quick road trip to Bromsgrove.
Looked in some Charity Shops.
There were some Lloyd Loom bargains↓
We missed out on the final Charity shop as we had our hour.
We got loads of bargains...
Now to do some Lidl shopping.
Anyone want a cucumber↓
Christmas coming soon↓
Back home.
My cake order had arrived......\o/
(That was 3 days late)
Bargains from Bromsgrove.
Salad for lunch↓
Back out....
We park in Car Park 4.
Hubby picked up his snooker glasses.
Then it was time to pick up some magic bags.
I bumped into one of the Stepford mums from my sons's First school.
Both her kids are at Uni.
"Isn't it expensive going to Uni?" She said.
"I wouldn't know,"I replied.
*This is some of things she said to me when I was going through the breakup of my first marriage back in 2011.*
*"You moved your boyfriend in a bit quickly, after your husband left!"
My reply was: "Hotel rooms are very expensive!"
She blocked my car in the school car park, so I couldn't get out. When she FINALLY came back to the car, I told her either move it, or I will take it out...
*The fun I had with those Stepford Wives!*
2 from Cafe Nero.
2 from Starbucks.
Lets go on the lookout for some Sequins...
Too small.
Alas too small again.
Nutcracker Time!
Back home.
Back out of the house.
We dropped of two baps each to two of my friends.
Next was to check my tyre pressures.
Back home.
Younger son comes back from doing an 10 hour shift at Morrisons.
Tea was put in oven.
Looked in today's newspaper.
Tea is ready.
We finally finished the first episode of:
Next up is a big big film to watch:

Enjoying The Sunshine!

If it's good, they'll stop making it - Herbert Block
Bank Holiday Monday
Welcome to my Bank Holiday Monday in Blackpool 🌅
 
Up early for a cup of brew before going down for Breakfast.
Lovely breakfast.
Now out to get the tram and bus to St Annes.
We waited at the tram stop, when a taxi driver said:
" There were no trams running...!"
FFS
We crossed over the road to see if there was a bus running.
Not on a Bank Holiday Monday.
Back to the B&B to collect the car for a ride out.
We just one parking space in the car park at St Annes. Then off for a walk about in St Annes.
Coffee and nibble needed!
A guest wanting some food as well.
After visiting all the charity shops,
Off to see Les....
There was a large queue for ice cream↓
We get a ice cream off the front, and go for a long warm in the sunshine.
Planning being put forward↓
That should be interesting when the work is going to start....and is it going to get through.
Goes back to car.
Everyone is circling the car park for a space.
Then we get in the car and go off to find Les Dawson's grave.
Found it!
We put some flowers on it.
We had a good look around the graveyard while we were there.
Nice and warm in the sunshine.
Now to drive back to Blackpool.
We popped into Morrisons to get some tea for tonight.
Now for a drive down the front...
Back to the B&B
Unpacks all the goodies we bought.
We had our tea.
I looked into today's newspaper.
Then had a early night, and to enjoy the bed!
