Welcome to my Saturday 🌟

Brew and hug↑

We had to have crumpets for the time being as we didn't have a enough milk for our porridge.

Dressed.

Now out for part one of our walk↓

We went past my dad's house.

The sold sign is on the board now.↑

Back home.

Back out to drop off son for his boxing lesson.

We go into town.

I went to get my glasses tighted up.

As my glasses like falling down over my nose.

I got chatting to my postie friend.

Once glasses were done.

Back to the car with a much needed coffee.

Back home.

Then back out to get some much needed meat.
