Down It Comes Again!

Until I was thirteen, I thought my name was 'shut up' 
- Joe Namath
Welcome to my Thursday Fun💀
We got up early to do the Heardles.
Heardle 50s:
Heardle 60s:
My results:
Breakfast and Brew.
The thermal vest goes on, even though the sun has come out!
Out the door we go..
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.
Only two more weeks before those traffic lights has gone and go the normal way to work!
Gets to work.
On goes the summer hat, with my winter coat.
Walks down to turn on my lights and get my newspaper.
Swaps the newspaper for my big stick.
Now to turn on my other set of lights.
Off to my spot.
Plenty of rain,and wind.
Could only put my stick a bit as it well windy!
Few late stoppers again!
The rain stopped and the sun came out to dry out in!
Finished in one piece.
Back home I go.
Coffee machine goes on.
Dishwasher gets emptied and loaded back up.
Pan fried the Gammon and put it in the oven to slow cook it later.
Made up the stuffing to go in the oven later.
Coffee time.
Wrote one blog post up to liquid lunch.
There was 50% of rain when I was doing my shift this afternoon.
I will chance it and NOT where my lumo trousers.
Out I go to do the afternoon shift...
Oh dear, just gets into
Sexy Beast, and it starts to rain!
Gets to work.
On goes my waterproof shoes, winter coat and Summer hat. I turn both lights on and goes back to Sexy Beast to fetch my big stick.
One friend came with another character who was trying to sell her dodgy tobacco.
When I bent down into Sexy Beast, he pressed his groin to my arse.
I suddenly got up and said to him:
"Be careful you might get up with a brown winkle if you keep that up!"
Fetched my big stick and walked off.
Goes to the square and meets up with lots of friends to have a rabbit with!
The friend who is not very well, is still suffering.
No bike racing for him on Saturday.
I said goodbye to everyone and started my shift.
The sun was out....until the rain clouds came over.
Then it came pouring down!
My gloves and legs got quite wet!
No BOINGs given out either \o/ 
Finished in one piece!
Back home.
Changed my leggings.
Cup of brew time.
The oven gets being put on.
Gammon, stuffing all goes in.
Sorts more stuff out in the Dining Room.
Hubby comes home and a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea is ready.
Yum!

Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈
Up early to do the Heardles.

My answers:
Breakfast with Brew.
I got dressed.
(Thermal vest included)
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before he left for work.
Dishwasher went on.
Now out for yak and coffee.
I got the newspaper on the way.
I had to choose which way to get to the Garden Centre, as both ways had traffic lights.
I turned left at the island and fun with those lights.
Gets to the Garden Centre.
Now to take some photos of my surroundings.
The staff was glad to  see me.
Coffee first. 
&
Toast
My friend arrived.
Other guest joined the conversation. 
I was told there is family of 4 robins that come for breakfast.
I had another coffee.
Then we left.
She is coming round next week for some Chocolate cake....
(As we can't have any as we have given up Chocolate and cake for Lent)
*So no Birthday cake for me on Tuesday.*
On the way back, I saw and waved to one of my friends who I have a rabbit to on weekday afternoons.
Speaks of friends, I saw the other friend who I rabbit to on a weekday afternoon, walking his dog. I stopped Sexy Beast, and had a nice long rabbit with him.  
He even me what he bought me for my Birthday!
Wished him a good weekend and see him on Monday afternoon!
Back home I went.
Liquid lunch time.
Now to write yesterday's blog post.
I had Tea at 3. 
The tea got put in the oven for later.
I had emails concerning the saga involved my house......
They have arranged a meeting for us to discuss the options.....
(there won't be Morecambe and Wise coming either like last time either!)
Probably one option...
When am I shipping out.....?
Hubby came back and had a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea is served.
Now to look into today's newspaper:
Time to catch up with The Apprentice.
We have brought back 50% of the pictures we put up on the walls of my late father-in- law's house...
Tomorrow is going to jig  the pictures I have already, to put the others up.
If I had to move out, it's going to cost the Council a lot in storage costs...
I know where two storage units are, that hopefully will be avaliable by March 31st....↓↓↓
Sleep Tea Time.
Now to enjoy the Friday Feeling in bed 🎈
