Having Time Away!

One can never be too thin or too rich - Wallis Simpson
Welcome to my Sunday Love 💓
At least the sun is shining!
Breakfast and brew.
Gets dressed.
Puts the washing machine on.
Hubby goes for a walk.
I get on with getting the blog updated.
Hubby comes back and tries to cut the lawn when the rain starts to come down!
I wrote 3 blog entries.
Time for lunch.
Then it was time to pack the overnight bag!
Once packed, I made the tea to take with us.
It was still raining when we loaded the car.
Hopefully it will carry on raining tomorrow...
On we go....
Nice views from the car park.
We signed in and got the card to our room.
We took the lift to the first floor. 
 Lovely cobweb I found...
No bathmat or fan in the room....:(
If this was the upgraded room, what was the room like I booked to have?
We had the tea, I prepared earlier.
Time for a bit of Bond...
Chocolate time!
Now to enjoy this lovely bed.....↓

Getting Away From It All!

More always means worst - Kingsley Amis
Welcome to my Sunday 💖
We will do the Heardle later....
Brew with Breakfast..
Dressed.
Now to do some things....
First up to check the tyre pressures..
The first Tyre Pressure machine didn't work, had to drive all the way around to the one behind.
(As someone was using it)
Next stop was to see my mum and dad.
Did someone forget our dad's Birthday by any chance?????
Pity it was back in July!!
I put all the flowers back on the grave.
The grave robbing brother has now took the blue solar light from the grave!
Not content with taking the yellow one, basketful of daffs, and the blue vase on Mother's Day, he has took the last remaining one!
Grave Robbing Arsehole! 
The adopted grave is looking good as well.
Next stop was to get another order from Argos.
Then to Dunelm.
Coffee time.
The view from the coffee shop...
Coffee↓
and Nibble↓
Yum
Gets the bits I need.
Back home.
Now to carry on sorting out the house!
I put up the shelving unit next to the shower.
After we packed the overnight bag.
We had a brew and a quick look into today's newspaper.

US No.1 on this day in 1961:

Now out we go....
We picked up two Magic Bags from Costa Coffee on the way.
Onwards to the hotel.
Signs in.
Up to our room we go....
The view from our window↓
Now to look in the bathroom↓
Now to go down for tea.

Now off to the bar to have some fizz...
I noticed some leather bound books on the book shelf.
The same books my dad had, and now I have them! 
Now back to our room to do the Heardle!
