Oh Yeah, I Got Four More!

I'm not a snob.Ask anybody.Well, anybody who matters -
Simon LeBon.
Welcome to my Saturday 👣
Nice warm hug.
Brew with breakfast.
We listened to "Sounds of the 60's" 
UK Top 3 from 1960. 
3: Michael Holiday - Starry Eyes↓
2: Anthony Newley - Why↓
1: Emile Ford & The Checkmates -
What Do You Want To Make Those Eyes At Me For?↓
Thermal vest goes on.
As well as some layers.
Now out of the house we go.
Parks car.
Now to look in the first Charity Shop.
There was nothing in there.
Picked up an Americano
(With blue milk)
Plus a cake to eat later on.
Moving on with the Road Trip.
Lots of bargains we got.
Nipped into Waitrose for some bits.
Then back out for a nibble!
On the way back, 
Hubby got his car cleaned...
All nice and clean now.
Back home to unpack all the lovely bargains.
More jigsaws for younger son to do.
Lunchtime.
We rewatched the Meatloaf programme again from last night.
Really good programme.
R.I.P Meat Loaf.
Now to put all the Minions together. 
I will have to make some trousers for the Hulk teddy.
Younger son already did one Jigsaw that we bought earlier.
I carried on writing two blog posts.
Hubby recovered from his migraine.
(Slept it off)
To do the tea.
Tea was finished.
Blogs were published.
Time to catch up with 2 episodes of Top of the Pops from 1992.
A good song was at number 11.
There would be a new number one for the next 8 weeks...↓
Marcella Detroit was sacked in 1993 from the band.
 While unsurprised at the final dissolution of the partnership, Detroit was distressed by the way it ended and how it was announced. Many years later, she would comment "I was never in it to steal anyone's glory away; I just did my job. I was asked by everybody to become part of it and then everybody wanted me out... I learned a lot about what it means to be an artist... To put two people as different as we were together – well, we were bound to have differences personality-wise. In the video for 'Stay', I was singing to this guy who was dying and she (Siobhan) was the Angel of Death. We used our personality differences to our advantage, but it was a little too real!"
Detroit and Fahey had not spoken to or seen each other for 25 years before eventually meeting and talking again in 2018.
They did some good songs together in 2019.
I looked into today's newspaper.
Bill Bixby  was an American actor, director, producer, and frequent game-show panelist. His career spanned more than three decades, including appearances on stage, in films, and on television series. He is known for his roles as Tim O'Hara in the CBS sitcom My Favorite Martian, Tom Corbett in the ABC sitcom The Courtship of Eddie's Father, stage illusionist Anthony Blake in the NBC crime drama series The Magician, and scientist Dr. David Banner in the CBS science-fiction drama series The Incredible Hulk.
He would have been 88 years old 🎈
He sadly died aged 59 in 1993.
Exactly a week after it aired in America, the first episode of Hill Street Blues received its UK premiere on this day in 1981.
Joan Armatrading releases
"Drop the Pilot" on this day in 1983.
On this date in 1984 "Relax" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood reaches number one in the UK singles chart, despite the BBC ban; it will spend a total of 42 weeks in the top 40.
"Owner of a Lonely Heart" by Yes was the #1 song on the Billboard charts today in 1984. It was the first of two 2 straight weeks on top.
Airwolf, the action drama tv series debuted today in 1984. The series ran for a total of four seasons airing 80 episodes. 
Then we moved onto watch
"Dragon's Den"
Then we caught up with the news.
Sleep Tea time.
Now to enjoy a very warm bed with a nice and warm hubby!

Flick, Flick, And More Flick!

 Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps - Emo Philips.
 Welcome to my Sunday love 💓
I went to bed early last night, and stopped in bed longer than I should have ....
Nice to have a warm hug with brew.
Breakfast.
The temperatures are to drop this week.
So on goes the thermal vest...
Dressed.
Now to sort out Sexy Beast... 
Checked the tyre pressures.
Next to pick up some bathroom paint from:
Once the tiling has been done,
The walls are going from pink to bright blue!
Back home.
The coffee machine went on.
So did the washing machine.
Coffee time!
Then it was blogging time.
I wrote 3 blog posts,
I had a break for lunch and then carried on.
The tiler carried on with tiling the bathroom.
He will carry on a doing a bit tomorrow night.
Tea time.
Published the three blog posts.
Now to settle down for some music...
Christmas Legends:
But Who's The Oldest?
It's a pity they didn't include two members of MUD that are still alive!
Rob Davis: Born 1947 
Ray Stilies: Born 1946 
Their Christmas song is at the end of the blog!
Inbetween flicking inbetween the music channels, I also enjoyed some Genesis and Phil Collins...
I did miss my favourite Phil Collins songs...↓
Moving along to another music channel..
Quick look into today's newspaper...
