Leaves Redditch, it's 24c and warm.

The train we booked for Blackpool at 9am was cancelled.

We had to get the next one.

Gets off at Preston, wind blowing, rain and its 17c!

Finally gets to Blackpool and it's raining

Gets the tram to the hotel.

Lovely room :)

Time to explore Blackpool by tram.

Afternoon Tea in the Blackpool Tower Ballroom

 

The Ballroom dancing was so lovely.

Reminds to watch a good film when I get back home↓

Found a ideal tin for a our Men's Shed group in October↓

Gets to the train station, and our connecting train from Preston to Birmingham was cancelled.

We caught the train from Blackpool to Manchester Piccadilly Station, then onto another train to Birmingham. Then it got warm again.

Welcome to my Thursday Surprise 🎏

Headle Time

Heardle 60s:

My answers:

Breakfast and Brew.

Dressed.

(With thermal vest on!)

Now to leave the house...

I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋

On goes the Summer coat with summer hat.

I gets the newspaper.

Collects the big stick.

Now to turn on my lights!

Now let's have some fun 🍭

I had to take off my scarf as I was getting well warm. My boss came down to see how I was getting on. More cars stopped while she stood there! No BOINGs were given out as they all stopped. Pity I couldn't reach the cars on the otherside of the road!

Had a yak with my boss after I finished.

Took off Summer coat and my jacket as it was getting well warm!

Walked down to the Public Loo,

Then nipped into the Charity Shop.

Had a yak in there and got some bargains!

I got some blue milk to go along with my coffee I am having at the Coffee Morning I am going to↓

I brought my empty Heros tins to put the cakes in, I am going to bring home.

Coffee time!

One friend arrived who I chat to in the afternoon.

The Coffee and Walnut was well nice!

I had a go on the raffle.

(I have won something on the raffle since January, I only missed the March one due to me having Covid)

Once cake and coffee was gone, I said goodbye to everyone.

Back home.

Unpacked my charity shop bargains.

&

The cake I bought home!

Now for a early lunch.

I got a message I had won a raffle prize!

Woo hoo :)

Now to go and do the afternoon shift.

On goes my Summer coat, Summer Hat and big big sun glasses.

I went and collected my raffle prize.

I left it in Sexy Beast.

After I put on my lights, I noticed the pillar box topper had vanished and a note left.

I went and collected my big stick and sat in the square waiting for my friends to apppear for a little rabbit!

My friend who came to the coffee morning with me didn't win nothing.

My other friend arrived at the Coffee Morning, 5 minutes after we left.

I said goodbye to my friends.

Now to do my shift in the sunshine!

Plenty of BOINGs given out, especially to those cars on the otherside of the road!

At least I finished in one piece.

Home time.

Now to get to work onto night's meal.

I had a cup of brew while making it.

Hubby came home and received a sloppy wet one 💋.

Dished up the tea.

My late neighbour's son came round for the spare key I had.

I also gave him what was left of the evening meal.

Now to look into today's newspaper.

UK No.1 on this day in 2012:

Rihanna - Diamonds 

US No.1 on this day in 1984:

Stevie Wonder - I Just Called To Say I Love You.

I managed to fit one episode of "Yellowstone".

Sleep Tea Time.

The Friday Feeling is back tomorrow 🎈
