Roller Skating Hump!

Welcome to my Hump of the Week.
We wasn't sent the forms for Jack to take his 11+ exam for tomorrow.
One quick phone call, and several emails later,
They were sent through...
However, our printer wasn't working....
Dashed to Library to use their printer.
Then to Jack's school, for the Head Teacher to sign the forms!
(good job the staff were doing a TE day)
We thought it was taking the exam in Alcester.
Several hours later, after glancing at the map.
We realised we were going to Warwick instead!
Now to take off the roller skates...

Making The Most Of...

We made the most of the last few hours of being child-less....
As soon as we picked our kids up from Scout Camp,
The arguments started, as soon as we left the car park!
I started Job 3..
We are into the last week of the school holidays...
Making the most of my final week of my holiday from Job 1 ....
 And my hubby has got the week off too ...

Making the most of having no children for 37.5 hours....
Road trip to Banbury...

 Now to try for another gold medal, by dragging a willing hubby back to my pink boudoir....

Time To Party!

The Champagne is on ice (non-alcoholic variety)...
The Friday Feeling is over-flowing the wine glasses...
The sun was back...
The bags were finally packed for Scouts with 30 mins to spare (before we left)
They were both excited when they got to Scout Camp.
Sleeping under the stars for 2 nights....
 Now to enjoy our Adult weekend....

No chance of going to Bidford Car Boot, as it rained...
Trying to get the kids to pack their bags,
All ready for their Scout weekend.

Thinking Of Burning Love...

We enjoyed a blazing sun today.
 Making the most of those hot rays..
So our washing machine has been doing overtime!
 Took Larry to Asda and Morrison's for cleaning supplies..
Larry was enjoying himself in the shade at my dad's
Later on I enjoyed some of my own shade in my front garden.....
 To collect my own thoughts (and think more dirty plot lines for my 6th book!)

Practice Makes Perfect!

After the rain, the sun came out..
Took Larry out for a ride out to Webbs.
Found some grass to park on...
Coffee, chat, and toast to enjoy...
 Giving me ideas for my garden!
Worked out the final details for JOB 3 
Back to writing the 6th part of my "Sleepily Village Mysteries" saga
Just need to practice some sex scenes on a very willing hubby...

A Little Bit More....

My hubby looks exhausted...
He has been a busy lad (with help from me!)
Last night and this morning...!
(Keeping my motor well oiled!)
I will let him have the gold medal, as I have got more than enough!
Tried to get my Dougal haircut trimmed.
(Hairdressers who are normally open on Sundays, were closed)
Had more looks of love from people when I parked in Waitrose car park.
 One free coffee later,
Then I had another long hot ride,
This time with Larry...

Having A Rub Down!

Enjoying the last drops of sunshine 
 (rain is forecasted all day tomorrow!)
Popped into town,
Enjoyed my take-away coffee.
While visiting my dad's, Jack gave Larry a rub down
Paid for Scout camp for next weekend.
Kids are looking forward to it.
So are we!
Adult weekend:
 Warm hands, and other body parts will be worn out by the end of the weekend!
Need I say any more ;P

I Don't Think It's A Piranha....

Welcome to a warm and sunny Hump of the Week.
We went off in Larry to the ford at Coughton.
Kids loved getting wet...
James thought someone was nibbling at his leg..
I replied,"I don't think its a piranha, as if it was, you wouldn't be standing there!"
We visited Asda, and found a Wolseley Hornet parked in the car park.
So Larry had to have his photo took by it.

Something Old, Something New!

The day didn't go too well..
Hubby went to change the kitchen bin....
The bag split open....all over the floor...
He was late for work, so I finished scooping the remains back into the bin!
Trying to get out house early,
No chance!
Made a Birthday card while waiting for kids to get ready!
Had something special delivered to my house...
However, as from last night, I have been watching one of my favourite TV programmes:
(Dalziel & Pascoe) that is being repeated on the Drama channel...

Using My Warm Hands Where Needed!

After using my warm hands on my hubby during the early hours,
He still had to go to work, no lie in for me as the drilling started at 7.50am from the factory next door!!
 Quick visit to Asda in Larry to get some baking supplies.
Then the kids did some baking.
My warm hands wasn't needed :(
 Only my advice!
Even Kenny wasn't needed :(
Jack got upset as he couldn't get his icing right.
I told him,"I'm useless at making icing, I try to avoid it!"
There where ready made frosting comes in!

Lack Of Computer Love...

A day doesn't go by, for me to have problems...
This time, it's my blog writing/book writing, Social Media computer!
Last night half way through last night blog entry, it went down...
(Good job I saved it, and published it via other means)
Rebooted computer twice in the last 24 hours.
I couldn't find a half decent USB hub in this town.
So we paid a visit to PC World/Currys in Shirley.
My kids went Wow at the big Televisions!
Even the toasters were expensive
Found a decent USB Hub.
However, they forgot to scan the reduced price and we paid the full price. Back to the customer services desk for a refund of £4!
Now got to wipe the computer(so had to order a external hard drive) and to go back to Windows 8, as having so many problems with Windows 10!
As least my hubby's warm hands don't need replacing!

Making The Most Of The Sunshine

The noise of cement being dug up, started at 7.50am.
(From the factory next door!)
I'm not putting up with that noise all morning!
Sunhat,sunglasses, sun cream and a bottle of water.
Time for a little walk in the sunshine with my 2 bodyguards!
Walked to Sainburys for a cheeky box of ice creams.
Back on the Miller's Trail..
 We got back home in just over 2 hours.
We did 3.64 miles and lost over 1400 calories!!!
Already got a few walks lined up for next week.
( Larry sulking,as he missed out today!)
Now to enjoy the warm hands of my hubby for a rub down :P
