Nice to see some car drivers trying to take me out on the big island.

I have a red car trying to move me out of the way on the traffic island, tried to speed up past me, I was going a steady 35 in a 40 limit.
He put his foot down up the hill, and forgot about the Speed van at the top of the hill.
He put his brake lights too late love, expect the letter in two weeks!
Gets to work.

Only Got A Tiny One!

If you are bored with your present enemies and want to make some new ones, tell two of your women friends that they look alike - Mignon McLaughlin 
Welcome to my Sunday! 🚋
We had a bit of lie-in after last night's fun...
Warm hug with brew followed.
Breakfast..
Dressed..
I am in need of a caffeine boost!
Now out for a little ride in Sexy Beast.
First to check the tyres pressures...
Then to put the pinks back on...
Dropped off two more bags of clothes in the clothes bank at Sainsburys.
Then to say hello to mum and dad.
Back home to pick up the shopping list for Lidl.
There was a good book for sale in there.
Hubby said hi to the sales assistant on the till as he hasn't seen him in a while.
It turns out, the sales assistant was recovering from a car accident for the last 5 months.
We nipped into Home Bargains.
Then onto the small branch of Waitrose.
There was loads of reduced food.
I only got what I needed.
The Sales Assistant asked:
 "Why I was buying a copy of the weekend's I newspaper?"
"Because I didn't buy it yesterday."
He rolled his eyes.
Because I spent over £10 I could get a free newspaper, they had sold out the Sunday Times, so I had another newspaper.
Loaded up the shopping into the car and off home we went.
Once the shopping was put away.
We caught up on the jobs that needed doing.
I put the evening tea in the oven to cook.
Hubby went to vacuum and get his car cleaned.
(It might move a bit quicker now!)
Tea is ready!
Now to catch up with 3 newspapers I bought today!

We watched 2 episodes of:
I might have a tiny hoard,
 but at least I don't have to climb over something to get out of the front door!
We have 4 episodes of Top of the Pops from 1991 to catch up with....
I will find time tomorrow to watch them....
(It won't take too long....)
Off to bed a lot earlier than last night...
As someone is back on their Wobbly Work Wheel tomorrow and it's not me! 🎡

Let's Face The Music And Dance!

I told the Inland Revenue I didn't owe them a penny because I lived by the seaside - Ken Dodd
Welcome to my Monday 👯
Nice hug with brew.
Breakfast.
I gave hubby a wet sloppy 💋 before he went off to work.
I had a nice hot shower.
Got the kids up.
I had a quick coffee...
Now to do some work around the house.
Dishwasher went on.
Tumble Drier on.
All the recycling went into the green bin.
I added new sealant to the basin in the bathroom.
That done :)
Before I started on the bath.
Fresh air needed.
Out to get the newspaper.
I filled up the bath half full of water.
I took off the old sealant.
However the new sealant didn't work!!!
I used some sealant tape instead.
That looks a lot better! 
Now for a very late lunch!
Then to write 2 blog entries.
The Prodical brother of mine had actually paid a visit to our parents grave over the Christmas period!!!!!
(First time since the funeral last March!)
He put a photo on his FB to prove it↓
He took my wreath off where I had put it.
He also put a picture on, off our late parents on their wedding day in 1968.
  (A postman friend gave me the picture to give my dad.
Now I know who has got it now!)
I am going up again this weekend and hopefully the other brother hasn't messed up the grave like he did last time...
I had run out of time to add the third blog post that covered Valentine's Day.
That will be posted tomorrow! 
I gave hubby a wet sloppy 💋 when he came home.
Meat Free Meal. 
Quick read of the newspaper.
Nathaniel  Coles , known professionally as Nat King Cole, was an American singer and jazz pianist. He recorded over 100 songs that became hits on the pop charts. His trio was the model for small jazz ensembles that followed. Cole also acted in films and on television and performed on Broadway. He was the first African-American man to host an American television series. He was the father of singer-songwriter Natalie Cole (1950–2015). 
He died on this day in 1965 aged 45
Time for more:
Sleep Tea time.
Off to bed early to enjoy the warm duvet and hubby!
