We said hello to everyone.

Bought some nice stuff.

Said we have three boxes full of books to give them, when they get low on books.

Wished them a Happy Christmas.

We moved onto the next Charity Shop whose system went down, couldn't accept cards,so I had to dig deep for £7 in cash.

Back to the car and to move it to the Waitrose Car park.

The church on the hill.

We visited two more Charity shops.

The third one had a good song playing in the shop, and we had to sing along with it...

 Nice Christmas Tree I found in Wilko↓

Then off for a coffee to warm up!

There was a brass band playing out the front.

Some nice bits in there↓

Welcome to my Saturday 🌸

I woke up at 5.30am and needed a brew.

I had a nice brew while waiting for "Sounds of the 60s" to start.

While "Sounds of the 60s" was on.

Sleeping Beauty arose from the his pit.

We had brew with breakfast.

Then he and younger son went to do the food shopping for the week.

 I put the coffee machine on.

Can't use the washing machine this weekend, so I watered the plants in the garden and fed the birds.

 Coffee time!

A bird came visiting...

Once hubby and son came back.

We unloaded the shopping.

Had a light lunch.

Back out again.

Off to see my parents....

Made sure the cross won't come apart again.

Hubby likes this gravestone so much.

He wants this design for the gravestone for his late dad and his family.

As once his dad's ashes are put into the family plot with the other 5 members of the family.

The gravestone with all 6 names on it and the infamous photo of hubby's dad smiling and with his red tie!

Had chat with my parents.

Tidied up Bill's grave opposite as all the flowers fell down off his grave.

Then off to look around Sainsburys.

Great Private Eye front cover.

I saw an old friend who still is a Postman.

Haven't see a man to do a runner NOT to talk to me for ages....;)

Back home for a much needed BREW!
