Spaceballs Extra!

Never cry over spilt milk. It could've been whiskey
 - Pappy Maverick
Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
It's a day off from rain \o/
Breakfast and Brew.
Dressed.
I put on the woolly hat I bought from the Charity Shop on Monday.
Felt like a extra from the film, Spaceballs.
Won't be wearing that outside!
Coat goes on, and out I go..
Gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
On goes my winter coat, winter hat,
&
Big big sunglasses.
I go and turn on my lights.
Fetch my newspaper on the way back up.
Swap my newspaper for my big stick.
Then to turn on my other lights.
Now for some fun...🍭
Last minute braking...
Stopping in the Keep Clear space,
One BOING for someone going under my stick.
Then the person with his own parking space on the double yellow lines returned↓
Finished in one piece.
Swapped coats, got my clip board and went to do the survey on the Recreation Ground.
I handed in the survey in .
Then off to the Co-op.
Coffee a bit expensive↓
Is rum more expensive?
Got my shopping.
Back home.
Unpacked the shopping.
Filled the kettle.
Swept up the leaves on the path.
Put the black bin out for tomorrow.
Time for a coffee...
The lego figures has been done..
I wrote yesterday's blog post up to liquid lunch, 
More Minions arrive...
Chats with hubby on his lunch break.
Then off out with 2 bags of stuff for the Charity Shop.
On goes my winter coat and winter hat.
My big big sunglasses get put on too.
I turn on my lights.
On the way down to the Charity Shop,
one man went past me with a teddy I gave to the Charity Shop last week.
My friend and I take the two bags into the Charity Shop.
Mmm there were some nice things to get me into the Christmas mood!
I say goodbye to everyone.
Now to turn on my other lights.
I fetch my big stick and off to have a chat in the square with my friends.
That low lying sun is going to be trouble!
At least the sun is keeping my spot warm ↓↓
I thanked my friends for coming and onto my spot I went.
My friend the Ticket man was being kept busy issuing tickets to the cars parked on the single line which you can't park on between 3 -4pm.
He came over to see me and he did look so good!
He had lost over 3 stone in weight!
"Does he want any of my chins to keep his neck  warm?" I asked.
Then he noticed a 63 reg red Skoda just parked up on the single line and left.
 I crossed him over and he had to do what he had to do.I crossed him back over, and he went off to do more ticketing.
The owner of the Red Skoda came back and disappeared. Five minutes later, she appeared and went past me three times to find the ticket man. I did text him to say she was looking for him.
The low lying sun kept appearing behind the cloud.
At least I finished in one piece.
Back home I went.
Ticket man phoned me to say he was now in Alcester if she was looking for him.
Time for a cup of brew.
Then I got on with the tea.
Nice bit of Gammon for tea.
Panned fry it, and put it in the oven for 20 minutes.
Hubby came back and had a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea was ready.
Yum :)
Caught up with today's newspaper.
Watched last night's Headliners.
Then to watch something new on Netflix.
Sleep Tea Time.
We watched 4 episodes.
Time to enjoy that warm bed with a even warmer hubby!
