And even more BoPimess for yous.
Just had the Motor of BoP out inn the garage. He was leeking like a colander holding water. All tight now, but without wheels was BoP!
Friths. That is an old internet explorer, you should update this to version 11. Also, your laptop should be capable of running windows 10, older versions of windows are no longer supported. There is a method to update the version you have to windows 10, I will look when I get home.
PM2DD. Wes on a roll with ollie.
Now on with the BoP bites.
Usual luncheon box today, and again with three cakes of Jaffa!
Found yellow thing in sky this morning, but it did not last!
That is all for lunch bites today.
Do good as other do!

Big cuddles with my gorgeous granddaughter.
Coffee with her mumsie too.
Got all the things I wanted in the city and made it back to the bus depot with time to spare.
Found some play money to go with the 'saved packets shop' I've set up for the Oreo child at his request.
The piece of chicken I've just had for my lunch, I don't do breakfast and by the time I got home at 3 this afternoon I was ready to eat anything in my path.....all better now!

Art'noon all...
Pleasures for yesterday
1. Left the house for the first time since Saturday - no milk for my coffee drove me to it, but the 15 minute round trip to the local shop took it out of me (did I say I have a cold?)
2. Signs of spring - a little bit of perfect cherry blossom in an otherwise empty tree particularly cheered
3. THe washing nearly dried on the line (eternal pleasure)
4. a 'beetroot bomb' for tea with mini roasties, carrots and roasted sprouts.
5. white hall farm - or rather, I think the pleasure is that it is finished.
Have a nice evening all.
I wanna be in the room where it happens10 -
Good afternoon, pleasures for yesterday....
HT still keen to go for work experience
Work was busy but bearable. Tips were the most I've ever had for one shift
Finished work in time to collect HT without it being a mad rush.
Tea was reheated leftovers from the day before as we were both shattered
Hot bath, pjs and jigsaw planet on my pc (all the fun of jigsaws without losing any of the pieces)13 -

some appearance of the yellow thing in the sky after all the rain in the early hours in time for
walk to friend’s house to walk to the station

To enjoy lunch in the restaurant that I had bought on Groupon for my friend’s birthday

Easy journey home in time to see some progress on the mammoth kitchen/dining room job
night all13 -
Pleasures for today (Thursday)
1) A lie in
2) Hens OK
3) Did an afternoon at the museum and hardly anyone there so I got lots of policies (nearly) finished off and printed out. No one has answered my emails so hopefully leaving my work on the table with yellow post it notes in where their bits are missing will prompt them!
4) Took smaller son to Sainsburys.
5) Bigger son messaged to say he is coming home tomorrow. He still doesn't know when he is going to France!
6) Watched Hospital on iplayer.

1. Drove somewhere else to catch a minibus to work. As some staff car parks are closed alternative transport being supplied. I had my free coffee and received a free meal voucher to use in the canteen. Had chicken curry for lunch which was far better than I thought it would be.
2. Minibus arrived in time but then took an hour to do 15 minutes. Traffic was awfuk. Text conversation with colleague who had an even worse journey! People talking to each other.
3. Everyone out for the evening. Enjoyed listening to music, making marmalade and general pottering.
4. Watched an episode of Whitechapel - nearly finished the series.
5. DS1 was out meeting a friend. I think he is also out this weekend which is good.
6. DH did bring bricks home from MIL house which he went to look at. Almost finished.10 -
Morning. It’s Friday hurrah!My Thursday pleasures.Work day but not nearly as busy as day before. An actual chance to catch breath and get some things done.Tips quite dismal but bought 6 primroses with them so turned them into something pretty!Nice chat with DD2 when I got in.Friend I was out with in Monday sent me a photo . I’d said I was looking for a log basket..she’d found one and it was a very reasonable price. Did I want it? Only if you’re still there. Came home and she’d even delivered it! So very quick chat with her. Nice to be nice.
Huuuuge chat with main friend on phone for 90 minutes. Loads to catch up with.Doing a little shift today bang in the middle of the day. Had planned to go into town with the mother and phoned her so she was all ‘well I don’t want to be rushed!’ ‘And I need you take me to supermarket’ ( as well as the other stuff we were to do ...even though she’d called DD2 on Wednesday who was going to take her to supermarket to tell her not to bother) so there was absolutely no way that was going to be fitted in to the morning as well as drop her off, get back home, get dog out, get to work on time. Sigh! So she’s now been added to the Saturday list of things to do! But it means I can relax a bit this morning.Have a lovely day! Feel the love! ❤️12
