Tree picture.
Now for the fun to start ...🎈
I had a bottle of water to help me cope with this heat. One lorry went straight under my stick, while two trucks had to slam on their brakes to stop!
At least I was given a present from one of the parents I cross over :)
I finished in one piece, well hot under the collar.
Back home for a refleshing lolly!
Watered the plants before the sun moved around.
Nice cup of coffee inside as it was getting too warm outside.
Then I got the iron out and ironed all my t-shirts.
The washing machine went back on as well.
Very light lunch.
Now for part two of lollipop.
I got my Summer Coat on.
Went to the near-by corner shop to buy my ice lolly. Put on my lights. Now to stand in the shade in the park and have a good suck on the ice lolly before I start my Lollypop job.
I also had a bottle of water to help me out with the heat!
Only a few cars failed to stop on the otherside.
I was glad to finish in one piece as I was warm in the summer coat!
Gets back home for a iced refreshment!
I watched more episodes of 
Hotel Inspector.
Too hot to cook...
Sent out for pizza.
The kids had 2 slices of each of my pizza.
Hubby came home from visiting his dad.
I had a quick read of today's newspaper.

In Need Of A Good Blast!

 I'm a wonderful housekeeper. Every time I get a divorce, I keep the house - Zsa Zsa Gabor
 Welcome to my Sunday fun 💋
I was up at 5.30 as I was far too hot.
I gave the garden a quick water before it got too hot too do so!
I published 9 blog posts.
Sleeping Beauty woke up and we had a nice breakfast downstairs while it was still cool!
Dressed.
Now out to sort out Sexy Beast... 
Checks the tyres...
Fills up for the week with fuel.
On the way to town, one car couldn't wait to go into the car park of the lake, and drove straight in front of me....
He had a good blast of the horn off me...
Nearly causing an accident....!
Now off to town...
Car park 7 was still closed.
Parked in Car Park 4 instead.
Hubby got some new clothes from Primark.
I got some clothes in the sale in New Look.
It was getting well warm in the Shopping Centre.
Time for a quick visit to Mum and Dad.
(And to water the plants on their grave)
Back home.
Light lunch.
Then off to Costa Coffee in Henley to get some more nibbles.
Back home.
See what nibbles we got...
Enjoyed the sunshine in the garden...
(Under the parasol)
I got more food from Waitrose on the food app.
Now to go and get it...
The staff were talking about the Magic bag I had to come and collect.
I told them I was here for the Magic bag.
It wasn't ready, so I went off into WH Smith to have a look in there.
Five minutes later the magic bag arrived with some reduced flowers!
Back home.
Now for tea...
We caught up on the last episode of
