Good Plan Of Packing Those Thermal Knickers!

My earnings were just about to keep a goat alive - Henry Miller
 January
Happy New Year 🎈
Welcome to a new month and a new year!
Action packed month to tell you all about.....
Let me begin...
1: We went to Edinburgh on New Year's Day for a couple of days.....
Good job I pack those thermal knickers......
It was very very COLD! 
We visited Edinburgh Castle.
Afternoon Tea ;)
YUM!
Then we visited↓
It was great to look around, so many rooms to visit. It was a good idea to come back when we did, as the weather was turning worst.
2:Hubby had to have his eye lasered again.
(As he couldn't see out of his eye again!)
3: More Minions!
3: Back to Lollipop job.
The body camera was given back.
The following day I nearly went over someone's car bonnet as they didn't want to let me go back to the pavement!
4:Made cake for the Warm Space.
5: Had more uniform donations for the School Uniform Bank I am running this year.
6: Hubby saw Roy "Chubby" Brown at the Redditch Palace Theatre.
7:I got a great series on Blu-ray.
(Only seven years to the day, I was watching The Sopranos on dvd!)
8: More cake made for the Warm Space.
9:Sindy having fun in deep water!
10: Made some posters to advertise the Coffee Morning and Warm Space.
11: Had a reminder to get our VE DAY 80 event sorted!
Thanks for reading...
More fun to have next month 🎈

Additions To Our Family!

    He's the kind of guy who can brighten a room by leaving it - Milton Berle
Welcome to May.....
It's going to be one of those months↓
(Someone had knocked one of my light bollards over)
Onto more things happened in May:
 
1: Council elections: Older son got re-elected back onto the Council \o/ 
2: We got 4 gerbils. (All females)
3: It was the 11th Anniversary of my mum passing away :(
4: We went to Kidderminster for my hubby's Pre-op for his eye operation. His late dad's house has had a upgrade!
5: We had a B3 moment.
6:
Getting ready to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of D-Day next month.
7: There were some visits from classic cars in Redditch.
8: We had to cancel our holiday to Edinburgh due to an important Hospital appointment for hubby.
So our kids went instead. Hopefully we can go to Edinburgh in August (fingers crossed)

Singing into 2024

You never know, it could be somebody important - Queen Elizabeth II, to a woman whose mobile rang as they chatted.
Welcome to my 2024!
So much has happened this month.
We had a weekend break to Edinburgh before I went back to work...
We visited the castle...
 
(Hubby realising we are going home tomorrow!)↓↓↓
I have 21 nutcrackers at the last count ↑↑
We visited a charity shop, I started singing along with the music, a couple who was near me, soon moved away and left the shop. I didn't think my singing was that bad, surely?
Finally found a big Dolls House for the Sindys↓
I have been busy collecting Minions↓
I have resigned from one Councillor job from one Parish Council.
Still got the other Councillor job, just sorting out things to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of D-Day on the 6th June.
Roll on February...
My leap year 13th Birthday 🎈
Out comes the sequins!
The blog will be updated soon....🤞
