Chill time in my garden↓

Weekend in Blackpool↓

Sequins time!

Off to see Funny Girls!

Visited the North Pier↓

We watched Despicable Me 4 at the little cinema in St Annes↓

 I organised the Studley Uniform Swap Shop towards the end of August to help parents with school uniform. We ran it for 3 days in the Village Hall.We had lots of donations of school uniform.

There is 4 schools in Studley.It was nice to help out by giving out free uniform.

We helped raise £64.88 for Studley Age UK.

We tried to do a car boot on the Bank Holiday Monday...↓

Only made £12!

In the afternoon, we then watch a great film:

Awash With Sequins & Those Silver Shoes!

 Don't forget to tell everyone it's a secret - Gerald Lieberman

Another quick update....

I am getting the blog updated as fast as the time  will let me!

*In the last 4 weeks...*

I baked again, put the Llama cake in.

No one wanted to try or buy it, so I had it back.

My youngest son had great A level results 🎈🎈

We spent a few days in Blackpool again.

The Disco ball was asking for another visit from us.💃💃

We visited "Funny Girls "again.

The sequins and silver shoes were worn...

The looks I had off people when I was on the tram ;)

*Lots of nice comments on my silver shoes!*

The 6 summer week holiday is nearly over....

Then the yellow peril (me) will be back on duty.

I have 6 weeks of frustration to get rid off.....

Hopefully my silver laces, along with my lumo hat, coat, and Stop sign might make the car drivers stop a bit sooner than they do.....

*Tomorrow will be the 9th Anniversary of me writing this blog!*

Hopefully soon, you will be able to see what I have been doing since we returned from Blackpool in June...🌈

 

 

Sequins & Silver Shoes!

A gentleman never heard the story before - Austin O'Malley

Welcome to my Sequin Saturday 💜

Cup of Brew while listening to the Sound of the 60s.

Dressed.

Downstairs for a great breakfast.

Afterwards, we took our rain coats and trolley.

Another tram ride...

The tram was a bit full that was going to Fleetwood. We caught the tram to Starr Gate.

Caught the tram to Fleetwood.

We have a look around the Charity Shops first.

Goes into my favourite fabric shop.

5 red sequinned cushion covers.

Ideal for Sexy Beast! 

Goes for a coffee.

Now to look around Fleetwood Market.

Hubby gets some flowers for his parent's grave↓

Back on the tram we go.

Back to the hotel to unpack the trolley.

Cup of brew is needed.

I got my things ready for later....

Off for something to eat...

Back to the Hotel to add the sequins...

It didn't help, it was raining when we were just about to leave.

We borrowed an umbrella, the wind was turning inside out!

I walked to the tram stop. The tram to North Pier was rammed.

We caught the tram back to Starr Gate.

Back onto the tram we got.

I had some lovely looks from everyone.

Got off at the North Pier.

Still raining.

(I guess one of my late parents doesn't like me wearing sequins!)

Gets to Lucky Girls.

The woman on the signing in for tickets was wearing a lovely sequin dress...

"You look so nice in that dress, if I could fit into it, I would!" I laughed.

Off to our seats we went.

We had our request read out. 

(the song is at the end of this blog post)

The performers were so good!

We had booked a taxi at the end of the show.

The show was overrunning, we had to miss some of the end of it.

We leave and there was a lovely transvestite wearing a lovely gold sequin dress, who was serving the drinks all night behind the bar was outside the venue.

I told her, "She looked really lovely in the gold dress."

She said the same about my sequins.

"I got this dress from Amazon,  it is a XL"

I laughed, and said,"That wouldn't even fit one leg in it..."

Then she loved the silver shoes I was wearing.

"Size 12's," I replied.

"They would fit me,"She laughed.

Our taxi arrived.

I said "Goodbye."

It's a good job we booked a taxi, everyone was coming out of the nightclubs, some were lying in the road. We got back to the hotel.

Thanked the taxi driver.

All the sequins came off as well as the silver shoes....

Bed Time!
