Welcome to my Valentine's Day 💓
Time to give each other our Valentine's Day cards.
Heardle Time.
Heardle 60s;
My answers:
Breakfast with Brew.
Still put on the Thermal vest.
Red Roses Time!
Now to leave the house.
Well foggy.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋
Nice to see some car drivers trying to take me out on the big island.
Another set of traffic lights appeared.
I'm glad they don't take too long to change.
Gets to work.
Has a text message to say I have to put on my new lights further down the road.
Winter hat, winter gloves, and winter coat goes on.
Turns on my new lights and gets the newspaper.
Back to Sexy Beast to exchange the newspaper for my big stick.
Now to turn on my other lights.
Let's go to work...🍭
4 BOINGs given out.
2 late brakers as well.
Lots of bad van parking on double yellow lines!
At least the fog is lifting!
Home time.
Coffee machine on.
Now to get the table ready for tonight.
Looking good 💓
Liquid lunch time.
Then time to do the afternoon shift.
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.
Gets on my winter coat, winter hat. Turned on my lights, then walked down to see in the Charity shop. Got some nice things. Turned on my lights on the way up.
Met my friends for a rabbit.
Low lying sun again. 
Said goodbye to my friends.
Loads of traffic!
Cars goings straight under my stick again.
Limbo dancing back again!
One side of the road was not going anywhere!
Lots of BOINGs given out!
Finished in one piece.
Back home.
Put the meal in the oven.
Quick look into today's newpaper.

Pressing That Button To Go Faster Than Lightspeed!

A dress has no meaning unless it makes a man want to take it off 
- Francoise Sagan
Welcome to my Saturday 💂
Off to visit my parents's grave with more flowers!
Warm hug with a brew.
Breakfast.
Nice lie in.
Then dressed.
Coffee time 
Then out for a little ride..
When we got to my parents's grave.
My younger brother had dropped off the wooden bench (he bought it in the summer) and made a right mess of the flower display!
The lavender plants I put on the grave last summer has gone. He had put the blue vase behind the gravestone.
I sorted out the flower display!
That looks a lot better↑
I chattered to a man last year before the first lockdown, who was tending his wife's grave. He died in June last year during the first lockdown, and now finally the gravestone has gone to have his name put on it↓↓↓
Said goodbye to my parents.
I will have to get some things for Mother's Day next month!
Back home.
Lunchtime.
Quick read of today's newspaper.
James Whitmore Jr. was an American film, theatre, and television actor. During his career, he won three of the four EGOT honors: a Tony, a Grammy, and an Emmy. Whitmore also won a Golden Globe and was nominated for two Academy Awards. He died on this day in 2009 aged 87.
Hubby was going to watch the Michael Moore film I was watching yesterday.
I meanwhile had a nice cake to make.
Once the cake had been baked in the oven, it was left to cool.
Tea at 3.
Now to catch up with 2 weeks of 
Top of the Pops from 1990.
(A good tune with Paul Young and Zucchero will be released in 1991, it's at the end of this blog post!)
Next Episode.
 
 

I could have got done for speeding,
On how fast I was pressing the
 fast forward button  →→→→
The cake is ready!
So is the steak tea....
Movie time!
Great film.
I think I will leave the sequel alone.
Then it was on to watch the Newspaper review with some Sleep Tea.
Off to get under that warm 16 tog duvet!
