What's Worst Than Finding A Worm In An Apple??

I can live for two months on a good compliment - Mark Twain
 Welcome to my Hot Feeling Tuesday 💟
I was awake at 5am.
Cold shower.
Downstairs to enjoy a brew...
Back upstairs just as the alarm was going off.
Opened the curtains↓
I'm glad it's a bit cloudy.
Heardle Time.
Heardle 60s: 
My son's answers↓
Breakfast and brew.
Dressed.
Now out for some fresh air!
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 😘
Puts on my summer coat.
Gets my neighbour's magazine and my newspaper.
Nice bit of parking on double yellow lines on each side of the road↓
The X19 bus just about got through the Gap!
Collected my big stick, and went up the road to turn on my lights.
Turns on my lights.
Now to Rock and Roll...🍭
I was glad it was cloudy...
A few BOINGs had to be given out.
One car does the Limbo dance under my stick.
The Audi afterwards does the same, but not before he received a BOING and looking up while I did it!
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Put the coffee maker on.
I have a blood test in 2 hours.
Tried to sit outside,
It was too warm!
Back inside with the fan on!
Sorted out what we are having for tea.
Off I go for the blood test.
Only waits 5 minutes.
In and out and back home!
Light lunch
Then back out to round 2:
Even hotter when I get to work!
On goes my Summer coat.
Turn on my lights.
Buys my ice lolly.
Collects my big stick.
Off to sit in the park!
My view:
Who did I see coming out of the road, at the end of the park?
My younger Gold Digging Younger Brother in his white van. I could tell he was looking at me when he went past.
I have nothing to say to him at all!
One friend appeared and shared a doughnut with me, however it had the hole but no jam was in it!
We had a good rabbit like you do!
Once it was nearly time to start.
I said goodbye to my friend.
Now for an action packed second half!
One red BMW tried to speed past me, until my big stick came out and it had to stop!
I mentioned where I be wearing ice cubes to one dad, and he looked round at me when he got across the road!
One man gave me a compliment about he good I do the job.
He said,"I come from Worcester everyday, and go through Inkberrow. The Lollypop lady has no clue on stopping the traffic like you do. You just stick in out! I saw you this morning stopping the traffic!"
I thanked him for his compliment.
Few more BOINGs handed out as well.
It was trying to rain...
I loved every drop of rain...
It didn't rain much....
But I needed every drop!
Just as I got finished,
I got chatting to someone about the plums in his garden.
He has 300 plums in his garden.
I told him, "My Bramley Apple Tree is heaving wiht apples this year, only 2 years ago, I made 38 apple pies, and still had loads of apples left over.Had to keep getting the pastry from all the supermarkets. One freezer is still full of them."
Then he said this to me
"What's worst than finding a worm in your apple?"
"Don't know," I replied.
"When you chew into an apple and only find half a worm!"
I laughed at that!
Then we got into talking about Pear Trees, Gooseberries, and cherries for 20 minutes.
I said goodbye to him.
And back to Sexy Beast I go.
Then back home I go.
Puts the tea in the oven.
Get's yesterday's blog post wrote.
Hubby comes home and has a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea is served!
Yum.
After tea, I look into today's newspaper.

Need For Cream!

My aim today was to do so much...
Stocked up my coffee for our coffee machine.
Sat drinking the strong coffee,
While looking up recipes for using pears...
Oh dear I need single cream for pear tart...
Already been to the supermarket today...
That pear tart will have to wait until the weekend now...
Eyes closing,
Now to catch up with some sleep....
with a power nap.....ZZZzzz
