Greetings Blogland !
I woke up  this morning intending to go out and have a wander about town. Perhaps a spot of retail therapy but instead got onto Facebook and got distracted by this , It made me laugh  ............

...and set the giddy tone for the rest of the morning . 

I was about to make breakfast , but then the phone rang and an hour long chat ensued. 
After that, breakfast , which by this time was brunch and then a nice leisurely soak in the tub before getting dressed to go out. 

Again I was distracted by the phone. This time it was my sister and we had some catching up to do for 52 minutes until her phone started to bleep - a warning that the batteries were running low. 

Doing the dishes was the  next distraction I think , Outside it was starting to rain heavily and it was also getting dark , so it was at this point I decided to clean the oven . 

Next I wrote a letter to a friend.

Evening brought an episode of Merlin and now The Magical Mystery tour. Nostalgia and my very own memories of the sixties; trips to the seaside , Blackpool illuminations,coach trips with the school, psychadelic stuff , bellbottoms and flower power . It's triggered a longing to stay at a bed and breakfast at the seaside ; Blackpool and Brighton , or why not Cleethorpes or Robbin Hood's bay or simply sticking a pin in a map and going there on my own magical mystery tour. 
It's been a happy , magical sort of day despite the rain and gloom and change of plans.
Now I am singing along with the Beatles.
Goo goo ka choooooo
