Then to say hello to my parents once more.
Nice blue skies.

One receipt I found in our Waitrose trolley↓
Then I had a surprise visitor come and visit!
My older son! 
He had a cold drink and muffin.
Told me what's been happening in the last 12 months since he seen me last.
Then he showed me the photos of the baby his girlfriend is having in December!
Shocked is not the word!
Then everyone starting calling my Nanny to be!
Before he left, I told him not to leave it so long before he next visits us!
After that bombshell,
Time for something to eat!
The garden looks nice after the mow!
Then we carried on watching series 2 of Michael Douglas.

The fun I had getting home.
People blocking the road by parking outside the local supermarket. Traffic was overtaking them, and we were stuck until the road was clear! Then someone in a red Swift parks on double yellow lines and we can't get past as traffic was coming towards us!
I have gold top coloured Mokka follow me all the way doing 50mph, if he had a problem doing 50 mph, he should have overtook me, he had his chances!

We watched Have I Got News For You.
Really funny.
I had a quick look into today's newspaper.
Sandra  Anderson , professionally known as Sondra Locke, was an American actress and director.

She went on to star in such hit films as Willard, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way but Loose, Bronco Billy, Any Which Way You Can and Sudden Impact. She worked often with Clint Eastwood, who was her companion for 14 years. She also directed four films, notably Impulse.

Audie  Murphy  was an American soldier, actor, songwriter, and rancher. He was one of the most decorated American combat soldiers of World War II. He received every military combat award for valor available from the U.S. Army, as well as French and Belgian awards for heroism. Murphy received the Medal of Honor for valor that he demonstrated at the age of 19 for single-handedly holding off a company of German soldiers for an hour at the Colmar Pocket in France in January 1945, then leading a successful counterattack while wounded and out of ammunition. After the war, Murphy embarked on a 21-year acting career. He played himself in the 1955 autobiographical film To Hell and Back, based on his 1949 memoirs of the same name, but most of his roles were in westerns.
