That's A Nice Pair Of Pink ......

I never did give anybody hell.I just told the truth and they thought it was hell - Harry S. Truman
 Welcome to my Sunday 💓
I went downstairs to put the washing on the line.
Made the first cup of brew.
Heardle Time. 
Heardle 60s:
My son's answers were:
More brew with breakfast.
Dressed.
Loaded up the car for things for what feels like our second home at the moment!
Got a free coffee to go.
Nipped into Dunelm for a few bits...↓
Now to drop it round...↓
Opened all the windows.
The back garden looks a lot better.
Now to sort inside.
Time for a little Sunday Boost↓
Nice addition to the bathroom↓
We found the Talking Pictures t-shirt, hubby had bought his late dad in 2020 for Father's Day.
The Talking Pictures hat went in the coffin.
Still can't find the calender....
Back home for a much needed tea.
Veggie Tea.
Quick look into today's newspaper.

Doing It Up A Bit!

Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate - Murphy's Law
 Welcome to my Sunday 💓
It's going to well warm....
We did the Heardles.
Heardle 60s was:
My son's answers:
Dressed.
Hubby and younger son went off to have their hair cut.
The coffee maker went on.
Watered all the plants.
Coffee time.
Both come back.
Shorter hair now.
Hubby drops off kids who is helping out with someone's garden.
When he comes back, we load up his car of all the things for doing up his late dad's house.
When we get there.
All the windows and back door is opened.
First to make the second bedroom,
Child Friendly.
Coffee & Nibble time.
Now to do some work...
I tidied up outside the kitchen door.
I filled up 3 rubble bags of crap!
I was well pleased with my efforts.
(With next door watching I expect!)
Glad I got that bit done.
As it was getting well warm outside.
The top half of the garden will have to be done another time, as I sweated enough doing the bottom half of the garden!
I finished doing up the bathroom.
Rose petals in the bath.
(Not just any rose petals, they are M&S rose petals) 
Light lunch.
Hubby goes back to painting.
Now to tidy up the kitchen once more.
Now to change the colour of the kitchen units.
Goes outside for some fresh air...
It really needs to chairs to sit on out here.
Watch this space!
Right we were done.
Finally back home.
Crumpets with grated cheese for tea.
Yum!
A look again in the weekend's newspaper.
