    I would do if I could get there by myself, dependant on OH to take me as not easy access by public transport. It is nice though :)

    Oh, and we have just booked a holiday to Madeira :j:j

    Thanks, yes I'm catching you up ;) I had a few presents including a Yankee Candle, a photo frame that matches a jewellery box I have, money and tickets for the Charlie and the Chocolate factory musical :D but I had said I didn't really want anything. Oh yes and DD1 is going to dye my hair and I told her to choose the colour :eek:
    DD2 took me out for a meal on Thursday before she went back to uni and we went for a meal with my mum yesterday. DD1 is getting me a take away tonight :D Back on a diet on Monday I think:(
    Birthday freebies I had are £5 Bon Marche voucher, a cookie from subway, a cake from Greggs and a bunch of flower from Morrisons :)
