Pump It Up!

Be aware that a halo has to fall only a few inches to be a noose - Dan McKinnon
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Thermal vest going on.
Dressed.
Gives hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before I leave.
Time for those big big sunglasses come out!
Still had to wear my gloves.....
Nice sunrise.
Puts on my lights...
Let's go to work...🍭
It was so nice to see the sun back!
Until the clouds covered it up!
Some drivers find is so funny not to stop...
Let's hope they don't chance it too often!
Finished in one piece.
I nipped into Co-op to get some top up shopping until Friday.
(I save £9.50 on my shopping too :)) 
I got the newspaper and my neighbour's magazine on the way home.
Coffee machine gets put on.
Puts the shopping away.
Into some lighter clothing..
Now to play with the new toy!
I did a great 20 minutes session on it.
Now for the Spin bike to come out for 15 minutes...
Felt better after that.
Washed and changed.
Coffee time.
Now to get yesterday's blog post wrote.
All the way to lunchtime!
My neighbour showed off his new mobility scooter, that now folds up itself.
I gives him his magazine.
Light lunch.
Now out for Part 2 in the sunshine!
No need for gloves.
Puts on my lights.
It's going to be fun with low lying sun dazzling the car drivers when they come up the road.....Then the yellow peril is whipping out my big lollipop stick!
I only had one friend to rabbit with.
(The other friend was probably taking his sister shopping)
I said goodbye to my friend.
Now for Part 2.
I was surprised how this afternoon went!
Not a lot of cars were going under my stick!
Hometime for me!
More good music to sing along with:
I got the tea all done.
In the oven it went....
Now for a much needed brew!
I looked the long range forecast for next week, especially next Friday...
It's going to feel like -9c and snow will be appearing in the afternoon.
Triple layers of thermals....and a spade to dig out Sexy Beast! 
I gives hubby another wet sloppy 💋.
Time to dish up the grub!
Chicken and Vegetables Casserole.
Quick look into today's newspaper

Hubby hung them back up.
Then I got on with making tonight's tea.
Once it was put in the oven.
I went off to have a hot shower.
Then it was time to dish up the grub!
A bit of music is needed from the 1960s
While everyone was else having showers, I caught up with yesterday's blog post.
Once that was done.
We caught up with episode 3 of series one of "Fame."

Thermals Time!

      Television is for appearing on, not for looking at 
- Noel Coward
Welcome to my Tuesday Fun 🚲
My duvet cover seems to missing much of the duvet in it.....
I will try to dig out another teddy duvet later.
Hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Thermals went on...
Dressed.
I gave hubby a sloppy wet 😘 before leaving.
It didn't help there was a frost overnight.
Time to scrape Sexy Beast's windscreen before I got off the drive!
Plus it was freezing!
I put the lining back into my Winter Coat.
As it was freezing!
Winter hat, and gloves were on .
Hoping the sun's rays will warm me up.
I put on my lights...
Let's get on with!
Some car drivers didn't take kindly for me dropping my stick down, and they had to stop!
One VN21 mini driver who were shooting me looks in the final week before I broke up.
I made her stop, her gums were banging together when she drove off.....!
Some car drivers were blockng the Keep Clear space, so trying to cross people was near impossible!
I finished in one piece.
I popped into the Co-op for some bits and pieces.
Picked up the newspaper on the way home.
Coffee machine was put on.
Washing machine was also put on.
Recycling put in the green bin.
I stripped off our bed.
I found the other Teddy duvet cover.
Put it on our bed.
It didn't help there was clumps of grass at the bottom and inside of the duvet cover!
Great!
Strips off the duvet cover and puts it in the washing machine.
Coffee time.
I go and look for another teddy duvet cover!
As the one I put in the washing machine is going to be dry for tonight....
Looks high and low on the internet.
Found one that can be with me by 10pm tonight!
Let's give it ago!
After all this messing about, I got half my blog wrote up to lunchtime.
Finish it off when I come back later...
I had a knock at the door.
The roofing company had come to look at my roof. They climbed up on the roof.
My son showed them the hole in the roof.
They said it was nothing to worry about, as no rain is going in through the hole.
I told him to put the bubble wrap in the hole.
The box is stopping under it as well!
Now onto Round 2.
I got winter coat on, winter hat and gloves on.
Turned on my lights.
I felt like Mitchell Mann with all my layers of clothes on under my coat!
At least the sun was shining for me!
My two friends arrived for a quick chat before I started the afternoon session.
I had the normal fun of trying to stop the traffic!
I stopped one man on a very noisy motorbike.
Who after I crossed back onto the pavement, starting to have a go at me about lowering my stick down while he was coming up the road!
That's what I could just about make out what he was saying as he crash helmet was in the way of his mouth. 
So if I didn't lower it, he would have drove under it, I guess from what he was saying????
At least I finished in one piece.
Home time.
I put the tea in the oven ready for later.
Wrote and finished my blog post.
Hubby was half an hour late coming home from work due to lots of traffic.
Couldn't hold off anymore, the heating had to go on!
Tea is served.
The Bear duvet cover is arrive!
Going to be well warm in this tonight.
(I was right as far as the other duvet wasn't dry in time for bed time!)
My son found out the DVD I wanted to watch.
Quick look into the newspaper.
