Sunday 22nd Feb 09

Today is Dad's birthday. We got up and had a cuppa and then went into the front room for dad to open his pressies.

Bobbie gave him his first - he'd got him some Dr Who Hankies and a Dave Gorman book.

Then it was mam's turn. He liked all his pressies off her. Then my turn - I'd bought him two photobooks from Photobox and he LOVED them. One was a collection of photos from our holiday in the Lakes and the Cotswolds last July and the other was a variety of pics from the last year including mam and dads 30th anniversary.

After this, we all got ready and planned to go out for brunch somewhere.

We set off in the car hoping to find somewhere but as usual we didn't. We went to Nature's World and I got two beads for my bracelet and necklace for £1.90!!!! I couldn't believe it they are sooo cute and a lot cheaper than the usual £10-£15 upover that you normally pay. I also got part of Charlotte's birthday pressie which I am v v pleased with, can't wait to give her it! And mam bought a bracelet for Jane's bday which is also v nice.


We ended up, after a lot of driving round, at the Fox Covert just outside of Yarm. We all had a roast beef and gravy sandwiches. It was really nice.

Dad is now watching the only James Bond that he hasn't seen - The Living Daylights and everyone else is somewhere else in the house lol.

Later on we are gunna have a bit of a tea party, with cakes and stuff lol!
