Bargain Friday!

 You wouldn't get away with that if my scriptwriter was here 
- Bob Hope
Welcome to my Friday Feeling 🎈
Nice big hug for Friday 🎈
Brew with breakfast.
Dressed.
It forcasted rain for this morning.
So on went the sexy lumo trousers.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet πŸ’‹before I left the house.
I got my waterproof clothes on....
I put my lights on...
Now for the fun to start..🎈
Some cars were failing to stop,
But on the flip side, some had to press their brakes very quickly when my stick got lowered.
The Mystery blue Skoda came out of the road up the road and turned right.....
Mmmm blue 20 plate Skoda.....I am still keeping my eye for it!
The sun came out, I'm glad it didn't turn out too warm, would have been well hot under the collar!
Finished in one piece.
I collected the newspaper on the way home.
I put the coffee machine on...
I sorted out tonight's tea,
All ready to put on later on...
I wrote yesterday's blog post up to lunch.
It is supposed to be sunny but chilly.
Time to leave the house....
I chattered with my friend until I started work.
Let the fun start again...🎈
Most car drivers did behave themselves.
Especially when I lowered the stick down.
A quieter Friday than normal!
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Time to put on the tea for later...
Hubby came home for a sloppy wet πŸ’‹
Dishing up the nice tea...
Faggots with Mash, and onion gravy.
Hubby goes off to do the food shopping with younger son.
I have a quick look in today's newspaper.
James Whitmore Jr.  was an American actor. He received numerous accolades, including a Tony Award, a Primetime Emmy Award, a Golden Globe Award and two Grammy Awards, in addition to nominations for two Academy Awards.  
He would have been 100 years old 🎈
He died aged 87 years old in 2009
When hubby came back,
He got a Wobbly Box as well :)
We went back out to collect some Magic Bags.
Sleep tea time.
Back to clearing the loft tomorrow....

Pressing That Button To Go Faster Than Lightspeed!

A dress has no meaning unless it makes a man want to take it off 
- Francoise Sagan
Welcome to my Saturday πŸ’‚
Off to visit my parents's grave with more flowers!
Warm hug with a brew.
Breakfast.
Nice lie in.
Then dressed.
Coffee time 
Then out for a little ride..
When we got to my parents's grave.
My younger brother had dropped off the wooden bench (he bought it in the summer) and made a right mess of the flower display!
The lavender plants I put on the grave last summer has gone. He had put the blue vase behind the gravestone.
I sorted out the flower display!
That looks a lot better↑
I chattered to a man last year before the first lockdown, who was tending his wife's grave. He died in June last year during the first lockdown, and now finally the gravestone has gone to have his name put on it↓↓↓
Said goodbye to my parents.
I will have to get some things for Mother's Day next month!
Back home.
Lunchtime.
Quick read of today's newspaper.
James Whitmore Jr. was an American film, theatre, and television actor. During his career, he won three of the four EGOT honors: a Tony, a Grammy, and an Emmy. Whitmore also won a Golden Globe and was nominated for two Academy Awards. He died on this day in 2009 aged 87.
Hubby was going to watch the Michael Moore film I was watching yesterday.
I meanwhile had a nice cake to make.
Once the cake had been baked in the oven, it was left to cool.
Tea at 3.
Now to catch up with 2 weeks of 
Top of the Pops from 1990.
(A good tune with Paul Young and Zucchero will be released in 1991, it's at the end of this blog post!)
Next Episode.
 
 

I could have got done for speeding,
On how fast I was pressing the
 fast forward button  →→→→
The cake is ready!
So is the steak tea....
Movie time!
Great film.
I think I will leave the sequel alone.
Then it was on to watch the Newspaper review with some Sleep Tea.
Off to get under that warm 16 tog duvet!
