Doing Up The House Some More!

Erotic is when you use a feather. Kinky is when you use the whole chicken - Anon.

Welcome to my Sunday 💗

It's going to be warm!

Breakfast with brew.

Dressed.

Out far too early for a Sunday ;)

Right back on it!

Now to paint the front of the house.

One cheerful neighbour came out of his home, totally ignored me and got in his car and drove off. 

(He must be suffering still from the camera that went up his bottom in May!)

Finished the front of the house before the sun moved around.

Now to finish applying the second layer of paint around the back!

Now to add adhesive wrap to the kitchen cupboards.

Sorted out the bathroom once and for all.

New volie in the front bedroom.

Found a tape I owed back in the 1980's

Put him on top of the kitchen cupboard.

I bought the two of the three singles that were released off the album.

True Love (1988)

& 

Jezebel (1989)↓

Also came across a signed autograph of Big Daddy↓

Also a weekly shopping list of my late Father-in-law's↓

Because it was getting too hot,

The wallpaper I bought,

wasn't playing ball with hubby who was trying to put it on the wall.

All of it couldn't be saved and in the bin it went :(

It was getting too warm to do anything else.

Time to go home to chill!

House looking nice :)

On the way home, we were stuck behind a Sunday Driver doing 30 m.p.h in a 50.

There was a large convoy building up behind us.

There were only two chances to overtake it.

We took the first chance.

After ten minutes, the road behind us was clear for miles!

Back home.

Time for a dip in the pool!

Once it went cooler.

Hubby got to play with his big drill!

We had a light tea.

We did the Heardles.

Heardles 60s:

My son's answers were:

Quick look into today's newspaper:

Then we watched "Marriage".

Oh dear, can I have my hour back!

Sleep Tea Time.

I slept downstairs as it was still too warm to sleep upstairs!

We listened to the "Sounds of the 60's"

While we were getting ready...

Watered the plants.

Loaded up the car.

Off we go....

We check on my late Father-in-law's house.

Oh dear we have damage alert in the Dining Room!

Puts it all back.

Opens all the windows.

More work for me to do in the back garden!

Hubby makes 2 trips to the Household Waste Site to get rid of the old Fridge, Freezer and empty gas bottles.

I meanwhile repainting the kitchen/bathroom walls and windows.

Coffee time with a nibble time.

More painting to do.

The neighbour was having a good eyeful when I was on the step-ladder trying to paint the top of the Dining Room window.

The Step-ladder nearly tipped off when I tried to reach a bit higher than I should have.

The Plumber arrived to disconnect the applications in the kitchen.

I got down to have a yak with him.

All was disconnected and put outside.

Someone from the flats opposite wanted the Tumble Drier.

They took it away...

Then later on someone, took everything else away for free \o/.

The kitchen looks well empty now!

Time for another drink and nibble!

Found the instructions for the missing items that belonged in the kitchen↓↓

Finished painting the back door.

Coming back tomorrow to add the second coat on the walls and window frames and door.

It was getting well warm when we left.

I bet some neighbours are banging their gums at seeing the above left on the pavement!

Back home.

Nice cold drink is needed!

Tea time.

We caught up with four episodes of "Top of the Pops" from 1993.

Oh dear, that fast forward button was used a lot!

Next up was a great episode of "Blankety Blank" which was repeated last week.

(It was first shown in 1979)
