Perhaps x 3

A bore is a man who deprives you of solitude without providing you with company - Gian Vincenzo Gravina
Welcome to a freezing cold Tuesday!
The thermal knickers gets put on.
I had more warmth...↓
 I had warm hug and a cup of tea ↓
 I gave everyone sloppy wet πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹ before I left the house.
 Nice and frosty↑
 Cold, cold, cold↑↑↑
 Crispy and cold.
I have so many layers on,
I feel like the Michelin Man
There is traffic lights being installed by my stop↓
 Then the blue van from yesterday comes back.
First blocks the road by putting a trailer on the drive by the skip.
Then he parks the van on double yellow lines and in front of a bus stop!
 Now I can't see up the road!!!
I still have cars failing to stop!
I saw and waved to an ex-postman I used to work with.
When I finished my shift, I bumped into the ex-postman I had been waving too. We had a handshake, hug, and chat.
I gets back home.
It's still freezing!
 
  I have coffee and nibble
Now back out for a little ride...
More singing to be done..
Time to look in the newspaper↓
 Jodie Foster is 57 years old 🎈

 The sun might be out..
It's still cold! 
 I have a nice red face when I finished.
More singing along..
Gets home,
It's still cold↓
 Coffee and nibble↓
 Then back to it🍭
The van hasn't moved since 8.20am↓
 I chat with the local window cleaner.
Who remembered me as that sexy Postwoman!
Perhaps I might have a better afternoon shift than I had yesterday
As I am trying to cross people over.
Several cars go under my 🍭stick.
I was in the middle of the road, when a black car on my left, failed to stop and nearly took my left shoulder, arm, and hand with him! 
I did wave to my parent's former postman who waved back at me.
I gets back home.
Gets changed.
Off to the Happy Place Of Work. 
Some good music to work to..
Does my bit.
Then back home to make the evening meal.
 Pasta with homemade tomato sauce
 Off to do the final job with more good music↓
 I gets back to catch up on more:
Then off to a 16 tog duvet with a warm hubby!

Swinging Handbags

If anything can go wrong, it will - Murphy's Law
Welcome back to another Monday🎈
 I was up before the alarm clock ...
Thermal knickers had to be put on
(It is freezing out there)
A nice cup of tea and hug in bed.
The sun is coming up↗↗↗↗
 I gave everyone sloppy wet πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹ before I left the house.
It is cold out there↓
 Now out for a little ride...
 There is nice view from the car park.
 
 Nice CD to  listen to later↓
 The sun is coming up↗↗↗
 Great start to the day.
Skip Lorry holding up the traffic not far from my Lollipop spot 🍭↓
 I turned on my lights and walked to my spot.
A large blue van then parks on the double yellow lines, blocking my view up the road.
Then it parks on the drive next to the newly delivered skip. The van front sticks out that much on the pavement, everyone had to walk into the road to get round it.
I caught up with some gossip from a former customer (Who I used to deliver his mail)
I didn't catch man in his blue car drinking from a coffee cup and driving today.
Nearly at the end of my shift, female pedestrian and a female car driver was having a right set too at each other! Swear words were mentioned too!
Once I had finished off for a coffee and chat..
 It was nice to B3↑
 Someone needs to press the button↑
 Ride the white swan↑
 Coffee and nibbles↑↑
I had a good chat with my friend.
Then off to work I go...
Linda Evans, actress is 77 years old 🎈
  I looked across the fields of fun↓

  I had to put my foot down....when I got in..
 I had to strip off a few layers when I got finished.....I had a nice red shiny face!
Some nice music to sing along with..
 Back home
 
 One quick coffee↓
I goes back to my Lollipop 🍭 job.
At least it's dry↓
 
 Then the chaos started.
Cars kept driving under my stick.
One car driver stopped to say "He couldn't see me because of the low lying sun!"
(I came up the High Street earlier and I could still see where I was driving in the low lying sun)
 One white delivery van nearly took out a car coming up the High Street.
*I finished in one piece*
Gets back home.
 Gets changed.
Off to the Happy Place Called Work
I did my bit.
Back home for a much needed tea↓ 
 The dishwasher was put on.
I made a chicken stir fry for everyone.
 Now to burn off it with the final job of the day.
 It was freezing cold.
I covered up Sexy Beast...
I do hope I have a better day tomorrow...

Play Time!

Always buy a good pair of shoes and a good bed, because if you're not in one, you're in the other - Joan Collins
Welcome to my Sunday🎈
I woke up just after 7am....
I couldn't get back to sleep...
So I had a little play with hubby....
(That woke him up ;))  
Afterwards we enjoyed breakfast in bed.
  I must remember to take down my set of teas that came in the post yesterday↓
 Once we got the kids up...
Time for a little ride out..
 
 We parked up↓
 We got some bargains in Lidl
(Including a Wobbly Box for £1.50)
Next stop was The Food Warehouse 
&
Home Bargains.
Needed the coffee and nibble after that↓
 Once we get home.
Unpack shopping.
Put on Tumble Drier,
Washing Machine
&
Dish Washer.
Once that was done,
Nice chicken dinner with lots of salad.
 We caught up with one more episode of:
Now to test the tyres of Sexy Beast.
While I was waiting, a car pulled up by a petrol pump.He didn't fancy that one, reversed out and moved over another pump. He jumped out, filled his car up, he then dropped the petrol cap, it rolled under his car.
He had to move the car to get to it.
He reversed the car, and then went in to the petrol station to pay for his fuel....
I get back.
Kicks off my shoes for my trusty old crocs!
