59

So! this is 59! Years ago I took my birthday off facebook, best thing i ever did. I would get annoyed that people who didnt interact with me all year round would pop in and say happy birthday ... yes I know I shouldnt! But I would far rather folks popped into say hello once or twice a year off their own bat rather than wait for facebook to remind them.

So yes I am a bit of a prickly hedgehog when it comes to birthdays!!!

 As evidenced by a card from a good chum!!!! 😂

But folks are good and kind and they send you cards so you should be graceful and accept them, below is from the lovely Jo

this amazing card is from my best mate Jacky, lord does that woman have great taste!

I got 2 cards from her! the mushroom is an in joke!

From my sister 😂The calm lotions are for when i visit mam 😉

And last but very certainly not least from my Scoobs

I walked down to see a chum and talk patchwork! Such a beautiful day, these pictures are from the canal paths.

This is called Jennys park

The sunken gardens with the now empty blossom trees

back home via the canal paths

I pop through the tunnel across to Seabegs woods

Seabegs woods has part of the Antonine wall, a beautiful place

My house is in the very distance here to the left!

Home to Scoobs and a nice tea, he is still working so we will celebrate on friday, fingers crossed the weather will hold up so we can have a meal outside 😊 there was a time when I wasn't sure I would reach 50 so to now be heading towards 60 is a blessing I wont take for granted.
