Welcome to the Monday Motivation 🎈

Busy day ahead....

Heardles be done later on....

Breakfast and Brew time.

On goes the trouser suit!

I still had to wear a coat, as it was freezing.

My younger son was coming with me.

Time to leave the house.

Gets dropped off near the bus station.

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.

Walked down to the bus station.

Waits at the bus stop.

Bus comes.

  I sit at the back.

Good book to read...

I did put my face mask on.

I even opened a window to let some air in.

Someone came on and shut it!

All the way to Stratford in the sunshine.

Gets off and walks to the Town Hall to hand in my form.

Waits to be seen.

I hands in my form.

Can't process it because the two people who signed the form ain't in South Studley but in North Studley!!!!

I gets the form given back to me and I walk out.

I need a bloody coffee and nibble!

Few phone calls later, I have to return the form and get it signed by two people in South Studley.

I have a hour and half to kill before getting on the bus back.

Time to hit the Charity Shops!

Got some bargains for my younger son.

More pom pom items for me.

Visited the Christmas Shop.

Had some fun with the Nutcracker!

More looking about.

Someone got married there as well↓

We carried on looking about and sat by the river for ten minutes before we got the bus back.

We hopped onto the bus.

Let the Magicial Mystery tour start...

One of passengers says to the bus driver,

"You have missed the turning!"

The bus driver drives to the big island and comes back and turns left.Only to find at the mini-island he can't turn right.

He gets around the mini-island and off to Alcester he goes. We get into Studley, he asks someone walking their dog if this is Crooks Lane.

I hope it is as I am getting off at the end of the lane.

Finally gets off, and walks down to the Parish Council building.

I had in my form to be resigned.

We walk down to the Charity Shop.

Has a laugh in there.

Off to get the Evesham Bus.

More magical mystery tour.

It didn't go round Lakeside, so we had to get off before it was going to the Bus Station.

Nice 25 minute walk in the sunshine back  home.

I was so glad to get home after today!

Nice cuppa to have!

A Councillor took my completed form back to Stratford before 4pm.

She had right fun putting it in!

At least it's in.

Wrote two blog posts up to tea.

I looks in today's newspaper.

Now for us to look around....

I got two X-Files boxsets.

We had lunch on the way back.

We popped into Alcester.

Bargain!

We nipped into Waitrose to get some bits.

Nice Price!

There was a shopping list in our trolley.

Once we got our bits.

Off to Lidl to do our food shopping.

Nice sunset when we came out.

When we got home, we unpacked the car of the shopping.

While hubby put the shopping away.

I added more Rainbows to the garden.

It was getting cold and dark.

Back in the house to start on the tea.

I forgot to buy some red wine to add to the tea.
