It Wasn't Just The Beans....

Woke up to find Wild Windy Wednesday!
Trying to keep hold off my hat and lollipop!
I had to wait in for the Plumber to add a part to my 11 year old boiler.
So back to writing the new book...
My Dougal hairstyle is growing at a faster rate.
So, off to the hairdressers for a fringe cut this weekend...✂
(No coconut style cut ,number 1.
Just yet, as it far too cold for that!)
We are supposed to be having some snow at about the same time I do Job 1 in the afternoon....tomorrow
Fun in the snow......Not!

Isn't That???

I hope today was going to be alot better.
For part one of Job 1
I nearly took a windscreen of green car that failed to stop..
Collected my new glasses.
 Saved some money by having teacake and coffee at  home.
I watching a really interesting film at my dad's this afternoon..↓
My dad swore he went to the cinema to watch it when it first came out....
I pointed out, he was only 12 months old when it was released.
(sound of a back pedal coming up)
He meant the Tony Curtis 1952 film:↓
Yesterday I saw the actor, 
Robert Strauss in the film:↓
I made the observation that he appeared in a really good film I had watched at my dad's countless of times.....↓
My dad just rolled his eyes.....

Banging Of The Gums Again

After a hard night of hot,sweaty passion,
I was ready for Monday.
The first part of Job 1,
carried on from Friday.
Cars going under my lollipop stick,
And going around it,
 to avoid stopping.
 It was chaos, bedlam with a bit of Monday Madness thrown in.
Finished in one piece!
Now for coffee....

2rd part of Job 1.
Heavy rain, and they had to come out again.
Monday Madness carried on.
One parent of a blue Zafria drives and parks on the Zig Zags in front of me. 
Then as I was in the middle of the road crossing the kids over,
She started to rev her engine very loudly.
I made her wait a bit longer for that!!
Gets back on the pavement, her gums are banging loudly.
My saying thank you and putting my hand up to her for stopping.
Went down like a lead balloon.
Roll on tomorrow for more fun....
