Let's go and do some work ...🍭

One teenager was saying; "How cold it was....!"

"I not feeling no cold as I have loads of layers on under this coat!" I replied.

"Why the lots of layers?" He asked.

"I am not feeling the cold like you!"

I replied as I crossed him over the road.

5 BOINGS were given out.

At least I finished in one piece!

Now to get some cooking of tonight's tea done.

Chopped lots of things.

Put it all in the oven for later.

Now to wait in the square for my friends.

One friend arrives.

Time to get some cake from the new Bakery that has just opened.

The nice new Chandelier was nice.

I joked ,"If I tapped it, what would drop off?"

Member of staff, suggested I jump off the balcony and swing off it!

I declined that offer, and I would give it a good poke instead!

Off to sit the square for a nibble and yak!

We saw our other friend go past in the car.

(It was too late for him to stop for a rabbit)

I thanked my friend for the cake.

Now to start Part 2.

Lots of late braking again.

Plus two BOINGS one after each other!

At least I ended up dry and the sun was still out.

One car put their foot down and sped past me as I walking towards them!

I just make sure my stick goes into the road first!

I had to give 3 BOINGs out for those not stopping!

I was glad to finish in one piece.

Then it started to rain.

(Good job I had left my rain mac in Sexy Beast) 

I had to pick up a parcel.

I was looking at the Fridge Freezers in there.

There was nothing I liked or in my price range.

I picked up my parcel and left in the rain.

Now to do the afternoon shift.

The Hall car park was full.

I parked in the other car park.

On goes the winter coat and hat.

I see two friends gathering up the pears in the near-by park.

I go go and have a good chat.

They had a good bag of pears which had fell off the tree.

They call it "Scrumping"

I ask "If they want any Bramley Apples?" 

"Yes, and they will meet me tomorrow afternoon for them!"

One of my friends I chat to arrived and we all had a good chat.

Then it was time to put on my lights, I said goodbye to my two friends and carried onto turn on the lights with my other friend.

My other friend arrived when we got to the square.The rain held off.

Now for a little rabbit....

It was time to start my shift.

I said "See you all tomorrow!"

At least the wind had died down.

It was still cloudy.

A few more BOINGs handed out.
