Beware A Blackbird Crossing!

It's not what I do, but the way that I do it.It's not what I say, but the way I say it, and how I look when I do it and say it - Mae West

Welcome to aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡

Nice big of hug to enjoy Monday with.

We do all the Heardles, Poster and Film.

The 60s Heardle was:

Breakfast with brew.

Dressed.

(No need for the thermal vest \o/)

Some weather reports forecasted rain this morning.

Not so much to put on my lumo trousers!

Let's go!

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one before I leave.

I went and got the newspaper before I put on the big coat.

There were reports of rain or sunshine.

I put the coat on with the hood to be on the safe side.

Lights turned on.

Let's go to work!

Normal Monday fun.

Two car perform Limbo dancing for me.

(Going straight under my big stick that was out in front of me!) 

One Blackbird landed on the pavement over the otherside of the road. Looked left and right and walked straight over the road, and looked at me when he walked past me!

I chatted to some of the parents.

Finished in one piece.

Back home.

Put on the coffee machine.

The Washing Repair Man will be here soon.

He is here!

Looks under the sink and finds the washer that should have been fitted when the washing machine was first plumbed in!

(The place where I bought it off, sent their plumbers to fit it, without the washer.

Then the pipe was leaking.

They sent someone back out, and fitted a washer too small, and it carried on leaking!)

The Repairman fitted the original washer and no leaks now!

I thanked him for coming.

Now for the soup maker to come out. 

The factory next door, has the tree felling men in↓

Now for some liquid lunch!

It was forecasting rain for this afternoon.

Great!

Now for round 2.

I played safe and put the winter coat with the hood!

I turns on my lights.

I sit and wait for my friends to arrive.

The same Blackbird from this morning did the same, however he stopped in the middle of the road to let a car go, and carried onto the otherside of the road!

Only one friend came for a rabbit.

Time to start.

I said goodbye to my friend.

Round 2.

Still had cars on the otherside not stopping...

Lots of BOINGs given out!

Finished in one piece.

I got chatting to the woman who does the line dancing for a bit.

A young lad fell off his scooter,as his scooter hit a pot hole.He was lay in the road. I went over to see if he was alright. He was just a bit shocked.

I helped him up, and he rode off.

Went back to chatting, then it started to rain. We moved to the shelter and more yak!

After talking for 40 minutes, I said my goodbyes and off home in the rain I went.

Ran to the house.

Put the kettle on for the brew.

I wrote yesterday's blog post.

Then started on the tea.

I gave hubby another wet sloppy one 💋

Meat Free Stir Fry

Yum!

Earlier on my son used his £2 credit in LIDL.

He had no change and had to pay 7p on his card!

Now to look in today's newspaper.

Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈

I was so stiff from sleeping on the sofa last night.

I woken up by sleeping beauty....

While he was making breakfast, I got dressed.

(No thermal vest needed)

Time for...

We did all the Heardles...

My favourite was Heardle 60s...

Now to leave house for job...

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one before I leave.

I fetched the newspaper and next door's neighbour's magazine.

It was going to rain, 

On goes the winter coat, with summer hat and no gloves.

I turn on my lights...

Let's hope the car drivers are gentle with me after the last few days I have had!

No chance!

One car went straight under my big stick, and was inches away from his windscreen.

I was in the middle of the road, and the Learner left it a bit too late too brake.

An emergency stop was done, inches away from  me!

Many of parents were glad to see me back.

They asked how the funeral went.

I told them what went on, and they couldn't believe it.

"I won't be seeing them again anytime soon \o/" 

I said.

Then a BMW driver tried her luck!

My big stick was out in front,

Windscreen or stop

Emergency stop at the last minute.

I safely got back to the pavement.

The rain was carrying on.

Finished in one piece.

Back home.

Goes back out...

Coffee Date.

I chats with the current postman to find out what's happening with the repick.

The whole office has had a repick, all depends on how long you have been there.

I would have been there for 32 years....

Now for coffee!

My friend joined for a good yak!

Another coffee and nibble.

Yum Yum.

Enjoyed the chat, coffee and nibbles.

Now back home.

Didn't feel like soup.

Turkey and Mustard sandwich.

Now out for part 2 of the day.

Various weather reports say either cloudy or rain.

I got out my summer coat.

Turns on my lights.

Waits for my friends to arrive. 

My friends appear.

Time for a rabbit...

Wished them a good weekend.

Now to do the final shift of the week.

Oh dear back to it again.

Nearly clipped a windscreen as it went under my big stick.

One man is a red car went under the stick.

I did the BOING, he turned into the side road.

Kept shouting at me!

I crossed more kids over the road.

He then came back for another go at me.

He parked on double yellow lines and delivered two bags of food at the house opposite me.

He kept shouting at me, I ignored him and carried on doing my job.

After that fun episode, nothing else happened.

Finished in one piece.

Home Time.

In need of a brew!

Now to get the blog updated.

Wrote about yesterday.

Now to put the blog back on!

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one when he comes home.

He does the tea....
