A Picture Might Last Longer!

When I go to a nude beach, i always take a ruler, just in case I have to prove something - Rodney Dangerfield
Welcome aboard my Wobbly Work Wheel 🎡
Today is my late mum's 79th Birthday 🎈
I will be around to see her with her balloons!
Breakfast and Brew.
Dressed.
(I had to add the sexy lumo trousers as rain is forcasted this morning)
Time to leave the house.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I leave.
I put on my winter hat, winter coat and waterproof boots.
I walk down to put on my lights.
I fetch my newspaper on the way back up.
Swaps my newspaper for my big stick.
Then to turn on my other lights.
Let's go to work...🍭
Torrid rain starts.
Lots of parents are using their cars and not me!
One parent kept looking forward and didn't see me walking across the road!
Car drivers still stopping in the Keep Clear space.
Last minute torrid rain just before I finished.
Dropped big stick in Sexy Beast before I went to collect my balloons. 
I collected my 7 & 9 balloons.
As soon I collected them.
3 people asked "who are the balloons were for?
"My mum's grave."
Two of my friends who I see in the afternoon, were going on the X19 to Stratford.
"Don't spend too much!" I said to them as they hopped on the bus.
Puts the balloons in Sexy Beast. 
Off to see my parents.
There was a black Jaguar f pace parked on the bend in the graveyard.
I couldn't overtake it on the grass as there were rocks put there for the exact reason!
He finally looked in his wing mirror and drove around in a circle so I park up to put the balloons on.
He parked up where he did before and was watching me fix the balloons on my parent's grave.
The wind wasn't helping!
The Jag man then slowly drove past me,
If he wants a picture, he only has to ask! 
Back home I go.
Bread maker comes out...
Cup of coffee is needed.
I write yesterday's blog post up to 
Liquid lunch.
Bread is ready as well!
Has a chat with hubby while he is on his lunch break.
Then it time to go and do the afternoon shift.
On goes the winter coat, winter hat 
&
Big Big sunglasses.
My friend and I turn on my lights.
Then we head off to the Charity Shop.
What was a bit spooky, the front door kept opening twice, with no one there.
(I reckon that was my late mum seeing what I was buying)
I bought some bargains.
Said goodbye to everyone.
Turned on my lights and back to Sexy Beast to get my big stick.
Then off to the square with my other 3 friends for a little rabbit.
My two friends had a good time in Stratford this morning. Had their afternoon tea and picked up some bargains.
It was time to start my shift.
I thanked them for coming.
Low lying sun alert!
One car went under my stick again.
BOING!
One yellow van parked on the pavement so I had trouble looking down the road. One woman car driver who had a bad trout mouth tried to park right in front of me on the double yellow lines until I shot her a look.
She ended up parking in Village Hall exit.
At least I finished in one piece!
Back home I go.
Cup of brew is needed.
Tumble drier was put on.
Wrote another blog post from the weekend just gone.
Fried up the lovely steaks and put them in the oven.
Hubby came home and had a sloppy wet one 💋
We had a steak tea.
Yum!
Looked at today's newspaper.
Then we watched the last episode of:
We caught up with the news and newspaper review.
Sleep Tea Time.
Off to a warm bed with warm hands.

- General John Pershing
Welcome to my Remembrance Sunday 
Breakfast and Brew.
I gets on the sequins and my red hat.
It's not looking very good for the weather!
On goes the rain mac.
Now to leave the house.
Gets down there early to get a car parking space.
I helped with the cakes going into the Social Club.
Then hubby and I went over to the car park for the parade in the rain.
I was at the front of the parade with 5 other Councillors.
We walked to the war memorial which took about 25 minutes.
At 11am it poured down with rain.
Then  we carried on with the parade.
The High Street was closed off to traffic,
However as we were going up the road, car were coming down. 
We finished back in the car park where we started.
Then we off for a hot drink at the nearby Social Club.
Got talking to a lot of people.
Had some nice food.
The coat came off to reveal the sequins.
After the raffle we left to go home.
I must have a caught a chill as I had a lemsip and a sleep to shake it off.
Hubby done the tea.
Then to watch...
We watched 2 of the 3 episodes.
Sleep Tea Time.
Back on the Wobbly Work Wheel  🎡 tomorrow
