Done a bit of housework while the coffee was being done...

I got on with writing my blog.

DPD phoned me to ask where my house was!

He went in the back of his van, searching  through the parcels around until he found mine!

He handed me the parcel.

Now for some liquid lunch.

Then it was time for Round 2.

Something interesting left in the car park↓↓

I got my two winter hats, winter coat on, and turned on my lights.

I came back and I was chatting to one friend as the other friend was out and about.

We still had a good rabbit!

I said goodbye to my friend as I was about to start Round 2.

With the sun going down, the temperatures dropped. It was getting quite cold!

A few BOINGs given out to the cars on the otherside they decided not stop.

Even parking in the Keep Clear space!

One of the parents gave me Gingerbread man.

I said thank you so much!

I was glad to finish in one piece.

Quick read of the newspaper.

Both were written by David Leland, who directed Wish You Were Here. 

She would have been 88 years old. 🎈
