    Thank you all it was a lovely day. Only just got back home. Had a lovely lunch with my friends and they bought me some flowers and a gift card. We had a nice meal with cocktails and wine and thanks to my 30% off voucher we paid £22 each so can’t moan at that. 

    Mr SA behaved himself thankfully. 

    I eventually found some nice smellies in Next for my birthday present from Mr SA. I was struggling to find something as I tend to buy what I want when I need it. However these ticked the treat type box.
