I got all the pots and pans ready for making of the evening.

I had my sleep tea delivery

I have a phone call from younger brother:

"Dad has given the BMW to Prodigal brother for the tiling of the upstairs bathroom!" 

"Oh well, I have nothing,and will get nothing!" I said.

 Goes off to work↓

 

 I miss out again on a↓

 I ask one of the workers for a lick of his ice cream..

He starts to choke on his ice cream.

I say to him,"Careful I can do the kiss of life on you!" 

Later on another worker said:

"I would take your away on an island, just me and you......"

I laughed and replied:

 "That isn't enough viagra in the world, plus I would kill you off in 2 weeks!"

I gets home to find my own ice-cream.

I finally find one in the bottom of the freezer↓

 I made the evening meal.

Shepherd's Pie↓

 While my hubby went to do my dad's shopping, I went off to work with some good music↓

 My late mum's favourite song came on↓

  She used to sing this at Karaoke, when we went. 

It was played at her funeral.

 I gets back.

Hubby said my dad was praising up the Prodical son all the time.

Next time, he does this, I told hubby to put some ear plugs in.

We caught up with another Louis programme.

"Off-Off Broadway"

Louis meets the hordes of out-of-work actors in New York as they try to land a part – and even goes on an audition himself, for a job on a Norwegian cruise ship, in front of Craig Revel Horwood 

Good job the washing was brought in,

As the rain started....

The Friday Feeling 🎈 will soon be here...

Second day running someone has tried to hit my Sexy Beast.

On the way to the first garden centre yesterday, a white BMW overtook a cyclist, veared onto my side of the road, and I had to quickly stear out of the way! 

After dropping it off, now onto to B&M bargains.
