Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫

Before getting dressed, and breakfast.

It was Heardles time...

The 60s Heardle was:

Now for breakfast and brew.

The weather forecast was a bit hit and miss.

Rain this morning and some said nothing.

On goes the summer skirt.

(No Thermal vest!)

I gives hubby a sloppy wet one before I leave.

The hall car park wasn't open in time for me to park in there. I got the newspaper and next door's magazine. I was trusting those dark clouds. On goes the big coat with the hood.

Turns on the lights.

Let's go to work!

As I stood there it started to rain.

I knew the pine cone back home has closed up for a reason!

The rain wasn't due until 9am!

On goes the hood!.

Cold, wet, and windy!

Lovely.

I had to give a few BOINGs out for those car drivers failing to STOP and going under my big stick!

Finished in one piece.

Back home.

Puts the coffee machine on.

Now to chop some vegetables up for tonight's tea....

Chop, chop, chop.

Now for some much needed coffee!

Sorted out more washing that I did yesterday.

The washing machine had to go back on as well!

I hope that washer can hold out!

More housework up to lunch.

Nice juicy sandwich...

Younger son got a Wobbly box for me from Lidl :)

Now to do the afternoon shift.

I looked at the dark clouds.

The big coat goes on.

Puts on my lights.

Nice Pillar Box cover.

Sits down, and waits for my friends to come.

Friends arrive.

Rabbit time!

I looked  up and my Supervisor arrived.

I said goodbye to my friends and not to be observed doing my job!

One of the parents, asked my Supervisor:

"Are you going to give her 10/10?"

My Supervisor laughed.

One car went under my stick.

The sun came out,

I was nice and sweaty in my big coat.

At least I survived!

Said goodbye to my Supervisor.

Off home I went.

Time for a brew...

Puts on the tea.
