Welcome to my Tuesday Fun 🚲

My duvet cover seems to missing much of the duvet in it.....

I will try to dig out another teddy duvet later.

Hug with brew.

Breakfast.

Thermals went on...

Dressed.

I gave hubby a sloppy wet 😘 before leaving.

It didn't help there was a frost overnight.

Time to scrape Sexy Beast's windscreen before I got off the drive!

Plus it was freezing!

I put the lining back into my Winter Coat.

As it was freezing!

Winter hat, and gloves were on .

Hoping the sun's rays will warm me up.

I put on my lights...

Let's get on with!

Some car drivers didn't take kindly for me dropping my stick down, and they had to stop!

One VN21 mini driver who were shooting me looks in the final week before I broke up.

I made her stop, her gums were banging together when she drove off.....!

Some car drivers were blockng the Keep Clear space, so trying to cross people was near impossible!

I finished in one piece.

I popped into the Co-op for some bits and pieces.

Picked up the newspaper on the way home.

Coffee machine was put on.

Washing machine was also put on.

Recycling put in the green bin.

I stripped off our bed.

I found the other Teddy duvet cover.

Put it on our bed.

It didn't help there was clumps of grass at the bottom and inside of the duvet cover!

Great!

Strips off the duvet cover and puts it in the washing machine.

Coffee time.

I go and look for another teddy duvet cover!

As the one I put in the washing machine is going to be dry for tonight....

Looks high and low on the internet.

Found one that can be with me by 10pm tonight!

Let's give it ago!

After all this messing about, I got half my blog wrote up to lunchtime.

Finish it off when I come back later...

I had a knock at the door.

The roofing company had come to look at my roof. They climbed up on the roof.

My son showed them the hole in the roof.

They said it was nothing to worry about, as no rain is going in through the hole.

I told him to put the bubble wrap in the hole.

The box is stopping under it as well!

Now onto Round 2.

I got winter coat on, winter hat and gloves on.

Turned on my lights.

I felt like Mitchell Mann with all my layers of clothes on under my coat!

At least the sun was shining for me!

My two friends arrived for a quick chat before I started the afternoon session.

I had the normal fun of trying to stop the traffic!

I stopped one man on a very noisy motorbike.

Who after I crossed back onto the pavement, starting to have a go at me about lowering my stick down while he was coming up the road!

That's what I could just about make out what he was saying as he crash helmet was in the way of his mouth. 

So if I didn't lower it, he would have drove under it, I guess from what he was saying????

At least I finished in one piece.

Home time.

I put the tea in the oven ready for later.

Wrote and finished my blog post.

Hubby was half an hour late coming home from work due to lots of traffic.

Couldn't hold off anymore, the heating had to go on!

Tea is served.

The Bear duvet cover is arrive!

Going to be well warm in this tonight.

(I was right as far as the other duvet wasn't dry in time for bed time!)

My son found out the DVD I wanted to watch.

Quick look into the newspaper.

Brian Poole  is a singer and performer who was the lead singer of 1960s beat band The Tremeloes (1957–62) and then Brian Poole and The Tremeloes (1962–66). He was brought up in the East End of London and grew up in Barking, East London. Poole attended Park Modern Secondary School, Barking and Barking Abbey Grammar School.  

He is 80 years old 🎈

Then it was Sleep Tea time.

Let's hope we have a warmer Hump tomorrow 🐫

 

Welcome Back!

Welcome to the start of November🌟

Nice warm hug to start off Monday.

Brew with breakfast.

Thermal vest goes on....

Dressed.

Back on the Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡

Gives hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before I leave.

I didn't park in my normal place as the Covid-19 Boosters are being given out.

4 layers of clothing under my winter coat.

The big big sunglasses are still being worn...

Now to put on my lights...

Let's do this...🍭

Everyone was glad I was back!

Now for the fun to start...

I had my stick raised, one red Mini came out of the Parish Hall Car Park, then straight under my stick....

A grey BMW was speeding down the road, suddenly had to find his brake pedal as I lowered the stick down!

I had my stick out, and one car on the otherside, didn't stop and carried on speeding up the road!

I survived until the afternoon shift!

I picks up the newspaper on the way home.

On goes the coffee machine.

Unloads the dishwasher.

Gets Spin Bike out.

Now for some Heat!

Did the Spin,

Cools down.

Now for some coffee..

Then I writes yesterday's blog post.

Lunchtime.

I ask Alexa,"If it's going to rain this afternoon?"

She said, "Just clouds..!"

Now for round 2.

It was still cold and I didn't like the look of the dark clouds that was gathering...

I put on my winter coat.

I goes and puts on my lights then I just have to rabbit to two people like you do!

I said goodbye to them and got chatted to another friend.

Then I felt spots of rain...

Great!

As soon as I started my job the rain came down!

Stopped, carried on 20 minutes, stopped.

In the meantime cars were going under my stick as if I wasn't there!

As soon as I put my stick in Sexy Beast it started to rain, and carried on until I got home. 

Nice to have a brew when I got in.

My new watch arrived.

I did a early meat free stir fry.

(Ate it before I could take a photo).

Carried on watching Heat.

I finally got to watch all 2 hours and 55 minutes of it \o/

The next film I wanted to watch wasn't on Netflix or Prime Video.

I will have to dig out the DVD of it out for Wednesday...

The film I want is:

Next film I watched was:

Hubby lost at snooker, and his team lost 4-1.

I said to him, "That snooker cue is going to start our bonfire next weekend!"

He didn't find that funny!

I had a quick look in the newspaper...

"Cool Hand Luke", starring Paul Newman, George Kennedy, and Strother Martin, is released in 1969.

"Titanic" directed by James Cameron, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet premieres at the Tokyo International Film Festival (Academy Awards Best Picture 1998) in 1997.

Now for some Sleep Tea.

I kept the bed warm for when Hubby came home.

The way the temperatures are dropping,

The Thermals knickers be back on tomorrow!

Getting Ready To Go Back!

Welcome to my Halloween 👻

It was nice to have a lie-in...

Lots of rain going on outside...

Nice hug with brew.

Breakfast.

My watch has a button that has stopped working to put back the hour and minutes back!

I bought this watch four years ago...

Speaking of four years ago.

I had a major accident which involved my achilles tendon snapping off, breaking a bone in my foot. 8 months off work, learnt to walk again. 

The NHS,family and some good friends help me get better a lot quicker!

As soon as I got back to work at my old lollipop job, 

(I did 21/2 weeks before I broke up for the 6 weeks school holidays)

Then I was made redundant from it :(

At least I have another lollipop job to do....:)

One minute raining heavily, then it stops...

I put my lollipop stuff in the car ready for tomorrow. 🍭 

Coffee time.

Washing machine went on.

My hunt for a simple watch was on.

I was not going to get a £350 watch....

I don't need the bells and whistles......

At least a good DVD boxset arrived.

One son filled out his application to get a Passport.

(He is going on a Foreign School Trip next year)

I sorted it out.

The other son needed a Scientific Calculator for his A level Maths and Chemisty.

I got that for him.

I finally found a watch that wasn't in the £££££'s.

Lunchtime.

Now to watch Red 2.

Really Great Film :)

After watching it.

Time to write my blog post from yesterday!

Then it was time for showers for everyone!

Tea time.

Then to watch the first disc of the Kenny Everett boxset that was delivered today...

George Harrison's "Something" is released by the Beatles as a single in UK, his first "A" side in 1969.

Dame Shirley Bassey did a good cover of it...

Sleep Tea Time.

Back on the Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡 tomorrow.

(Hopefully without all the rain we have had today)
