Not Where The Paint Is Supposed To Go!

If anything can go wrong, it will - Murphy's Law.
Welcome to my Sunday 🎨
Warm hug to start Sunday with 💗
Breakfast with brew.
Now to get up, things to do...
(Getting bathroom finished)
Thermal vest goes on.
Dressed.
Now out to get some fresh air!
First we pop to see my parents.
What a surprise!!
 Prodigal son hasn't put nothing on their grave for Christmas!
Now onto B&Q for some bits to help with getting the bathroom done.
Nice.But no where to put it.
Nipped into Asda to get the newspaper.
Then home we go.
Lunch.
With a much needed coffee.
The stuff gets removed out of the bathroom,
When one son knocks over the paint....↓
Hubby gets as much as he can off the matt.
He then carries on painting the walls.
I have washing to do.
Washing machine and tumble drier on.
I start looking for the stuffing for tea.
I ask hubby:"If he buy any on Thursday?"
"Yes, no, they didn't have any!" He replied.
"Great, could have got some from Asda, this morning!" I replied.
Once everything is in the oven.
I get on writing yesterday's blog post.
Much needed cup of tea is needed first!
Hubby had finished most of the painting in the bathroom. Just some little bits need doing tomorrow.
Tea is served.
Some are songs are 50 this year.
Same as me turning that age this year...
(Makes me feel old!)

We watch the documentary, 
Pauline Collins: Britain's Sweetheart,
 that was shown before  the film Shirley Valentine was shown last week.
Quick look in the newspaper.

He would have been 86 years old 🎈 
He sadly died aged 56 in 1992.

A Little Time To Enjoy Some 90s Music!

Welcome to my Sunday 🍾
Might have to try and go to see the Doctor this week about my knee....

Everyone else gets up,
As they are going for a walk around the lake.
I am resting the knee.
Coffee time.
While hubby takes the kids around the lake.

Now for a little play with Kenny.
Halloween themed of course!
Put the cakes in the oven.
Everyone comes back.
One son moaning about how many were around the lake, and how rammed it was...
Lunch time.
The visit to see my parents was postponed until the rain stopped.
Finished the cakes instead.
Rain stopped.

 We caught up with the semi-final and final of series 6 of The Great British Sewing Bee.
Now to move onto two episodes of Top Of The Pops from 1990.
I had to fast forward half of the first programme because the music was dire.

Moving on to the next episode...
A bit more fastforwarding....
 

I left hubby to watch this week's Top Gear.
I got other things to do.
Then to catch up with more programmes.
I ordered some more sewing books off AbeBooks website.
Sleep tea to finish off Sunday night.
