Getting Away From It All!

More always means worst - Kingsley Amis
Welcome to my Sunday 💖
We will do the Heardle later....
Brew with Breakfast..
Dressed.
Now to do some things....
First up to check the tyre pressures..
The first Tyre Pressure machine didn't work, had to drive all the way around to the one behind.
(As someone was using it)
Next stop was to see my mum and dad.
Did someone forget our dad's Birthday by any chance?????
Pity it was back in July!!
I put all the flowers back on the grave.
The grave robbing brother has now took the blue solar light from the grave!
Not content with taking the yellow one, basketful of daffs, and the blue vase on Mother's Day, he has took the last remaining one!
Grave Robbing Arsehole! 
The adopted grave is looking good as well.
Next stop was to get another order from Argos.
Then to Dunelm.
Coffee time.
The view from the coffee shop...
