Now to leave the house....

I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋

Dark, wet and cold on the way to work.

Get's my waterproof shoes on.

I turns on my lights.

I go and wait by  Sexy Beast as it is raining very heavily.

I walk across my crossing to get over the road.

More BOINGs given out.

Especially to those car drivers on the otherside of the road!

I stopped raining halfway during my shift.

The road is still wet and car drivers try to stop suddenly!

Once I finished I got talking to one of my old customers I used to deliver her mail too.

Remarried and has grandchildren!

Now back to Sexy Beast to take off the winter coat!

Back home.

I put on the coffee machine.

I sweep up the leaves off the path.

They will keep my hands dry during the rainy season while doing my lollipop job!

My wind up Nutcracker globe arrived too.

Something arrived for my younger son to enjoy↓

My outfit for Friday arrived as well....\o/

Liquid lunch time.

I was in two minds to put on my sexy lumo trousers, as rain was forecasted.

I decided against it....

Now to leave...

I kept on my Winter coat, and winter hat.

I put on my lights and went with my friends to rabbit in the square.

Half rainbow appeared

Low lying sun fun!

I have to say goodbye to someone I chat to in the morning as his house has sold and he is moving out of the area to live with son.

He got me the big unicorn lolly for Christmas last Christmas.

 I have now lost 3 people who I chat to in the morning now :(

(That I won't see again :() 

I said goodbye to my friends and started my shift.

A few cars on the otherside can't read the words on the road to KEEP IT CLEAR, so I can cross people over safely!

Few boings given out.

At least I finished in one piece.

Back home.

A brew is needed!

I put the tea in the oven.

Then to write more blog entries.

Hubby came home.

Then it was time to write 3 blog posts.

The Council sent out Plumber to service the boiler.

I asked him,"Has he got a new boiler in his van to fit here?"

He laughed.

I told him why I left a box under the boiler, as the last three times it has leaked and ruined all my duvet covers! 

They don't check if the cooker has a chain on it no more.

I said,"Bet you have seen some cookers in your time?"

He pulled a face.

I told him about a certain cooker that hadn't been cleaned in over 30 years.When my hubby tried to clean it, the paint came off it.

When the Plumber came to disconnect the cooker, I passed him gloves so he could touch it.

When he took it outside, it was so hot, it was making the dried fat, turn liquid!

The Plumber pulled a face after I told him that.

Second year running the report says to have a upgrade on the 16 year old boiler!

Doesn't look like a new boiler is going to fitted any time soon!

Lunch time.

Lois Maxwell  was a Canadian actress, best known for her portrayal of Miss Moneypenny in all the first fourteen Eon-produced James Bond films (1962–1985). She was the first actress to play the part. The films in which she played Miss Moneypenny were Dr. No (1962), From Russia with Love (1963), Goldfinger (1964), Thunderball (1965), You Only Live Twice (1967), On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), Diamonds Are Forever (1971), Live and Let Die (1973), The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), Moonraker (1979), For Your Eyes Only (1981), Octopussy (1983), and A View to a Kill (1985). She did not appear in the 1967 adaptations of Casino Royale, nor in the 1983 remake of Thunderball, Never Say Never Again, as the production was not Eon's, though she did, as a similar character, in the spoof O.K. Connery.
