Welcome to my Saturday!

My Christmas magazines had arrived↓
 Oh dear it is pouring with rain outside!
 We all get dressed and now to hit town!
 It's a long way down↓↓↓↓
 We picked up my new toaster.
I found a great dress to wear at the Xmas Party..
 However due to my large bum and tits,
There was no hell in chance of me getting into it....↑↑↑
Oh well

Breaking My Stride

We all got up, dressed.
All ready to face the world!

 I got some bargain price curtains from one of the charity shops from town.
They covered 4 windows for £12
 
 We then did our food shopping.
We picked our favourite tea bags for £5!

He discovered his youngest brother's hat he used to wear. :)

Handcuffs & Babyoil Part 2

The weekend is finally here \o/
I was up early to listen to
" The Sounds of the 60s"
Had a early breakfast...
Once everyone was up....
A little ride out....
 
 
 
 
 Long way down...↓↓↓
It stopped raining.
We went to the Bandstand to celebrate 
the life of Emmeline Pankhurst
 
 
 Our Redditch MP and Redditch Mayor was there.
 They all disappeared to have their photo took.
I waited for them to come back.
 
 We sat on the bench to carrying on listening.
I got chatting to a ex-worker from my time at Fawlty Towers....
Our water Fountain on the Church Green.
While everyone was taking photos, we went to the cafe. Sat on the leather settee, to enjoy a coffee, and waited for everyone to arrive.
 
I chatted to the MP again.
I even got two dvds for 50p
Walked back to the Library..
 
A really nice went past me :)
Chatted with a ex-postie.
A couple sat opposite me.
I recognised the man as my older's son's real Granddad from Kings Norton with his second wife sat with him.
(I haven't spoke to him since 1993 when he chased me around his drive with a hammer, then my boyfriend and his dad was trying to strangle each other on the drive)
The Grandfather is looking more like his son everytime I see him...
Arrived back home before the rain started again...
Sorted out my dad's Birthday cards out for tomorrow.
Had a quick tea as we were going out to a Snooker Awards Evening.
 
 
 Nice cold lemonade.
We had a quiz.
We had our usual name.
Handscuffs & Babyoil.
 At half time we were third.
 Hubby's team won the Divison one championship
 
 His team were Runner's up in a cup match.
 
 
 Nice sunset.
We finished second at the end.
We had a nibble at the buffet.
Gets back home....
Hopefully we are having a much deserved lie-in tomorrow....
