Welcome to my Thursday car boot visit....🚗

I enjoyed a cup of tea and the quiet!
As soon as the alarm went off, hubby was up!
Breakfast followed.

Lots of lovely things including plants!
I bought 2 kinds of runner beans plants...
We walked around the car boot twice.
Gets back to the car.
Coffee time!
Then off to walk around along the river.
I was having trouble with DPD again.
They delivered somewhere else and not at my house. The same woman from DPD phoned me up,(from yesterday) and I asked the parcel could be redelivered to my house.It will be, she replied.
I had to nip into Waitrose to get some milk.
Back home.
Gets all the plants out of the car.
Lots of parcels arrived for me,
Including my DPD order...
I repotted my beans and plants.
I opened the bag which contained the other kind of runner beans..
That isn't runner beans...that's Cabbage!
We had light lunch and chilled in the garden.
Then it's time to get ready for work.
Big tunes time...

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Nice warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
Now to sit outside with a coffee
Hubby took younger son on a walk to the shop, to get next door's magazine and our newspaper.
I had two blog posts to write!
I had another email from the Solicitor dealing with my late dad's estate.
The younger brother not happy with the extra £3000 he put into the estate, only added yet another £600 for 3 skips!!
He called me a Golddigger when I hired one to take away the things he dropped off at mine last year during the first Lockdown!!
I am glad I am going to work tonight.
I need to clean 26 toilets in this burning heat to get rid of my anger!
Blogs wrote and published.
Now to sit outside and enjoy lunch in the sunshine.
The DPD tried to deliver my parcel.
However it went past our house.
(We were sat in the front garden)
Tried to deliver to one of the factories down the road!
Then I had a text message saying the driver will be attempting delivery tomorrow now!
Hubby then went after the driver who was up the road delivering.
The driver came back, and balanced my parcel on a garden ornament↓
Now to unpack it!
I had to order things for the two Birthday cakes for next week.
One 50th and 17th Birthdays next week.
Let's hope the things get here on time!
The rain came in as planned!
I took my rain mac to work just in case, I get wet taking the bin bag outside to the big bin.
Gave everyone big sloppy 💋💋💋
Time for some singing in the rain...
Gets in.
It's still well warm!
My hoover had been Pat tested!
Funny they backdated it to February!
It was so warm doing my job!
No windows opened.
Plenty of fluids being drunk!
Finished on time.
More music to singalong with on the way back home.
Back home.
The flowers looking nice!
I had my tea.
Quick look in the newspaper.

Hugs with brew.

I put out the washing on the line to dry.
Dressed.
Back to work today.
Hubby has got the week off work \o/
(Plenty of things for him to do...)
Quick coffee..
Big big sunglasses go on..
Off to work I go.
I was asked if I wanted to do more hours, as I can't clean the whole house in my allotted time.
When he came back, I suggested more time on both days.....
I was hot and sweaty when I finally finished.
Hubby was sitting in the front garden.
Lunch time
Nice to chill out in the shade!
Even had cake later as well!
Now to get the things ready for my other job.
I gave out sloppy wet 💋💋💋 before I left.
Now for some singalong..
As normal I have fun with other drivers.
Today was no exception.
One black Mitsublishi SUV was sitting on my arse the whole way to work.
Didn't like doing 50mph.
I gets into work.
I bring a bottle of water with me.
Loads up the skip with the hoover.
I was so hot when I got finished!
More singing to do:
I had a gold top coloured Fiat 500 follow me the part of the way, he didn't take kindly to doing 20mph, he ducked down a side road.
A blue Lupo in front pulled in front of a large Skoda at the traffic lights...
Further up the road, the gold top coloured Fiat 500 appeared at a side road, trying to be clever backfired!
It had trouble trying to catch up with me, doing 50mph!
Nearly home, one Audi with its roof down, didnt fancy doing 40mph, and overtook at 60mph and then turned off at the next side road!
Finally back home!
Hubby finished painting the sides of the stairs with the yellow paint I bought :)
Tea in the garden!
Quick look into today's newspaper.
