It was my birthday on Sunday so, as is tradition in these parts, I thought I’d belatedly share what I got up to and provide a peek at my fabulous presents.
I spent Saturday with friends, plus my dad (who was a bonus late addition). In typical male fashion, we watched football, drank beer, played pool and (later) ate curry! Some managed clubbing but I ducked out before that.
Sunday was muted in comparison, though no less enjoyable. Following an early-hours Red Sox triumph and some much-needed sleep, I enjoyed a relaxing morning of coffee…more coffee and present unwrapping.
We then drove the short distance to my mum’s house, where I was surrounded by family and spoiled with more gifts. As promised here’s a selection…
…including a beautiful leather jacket, new trainers, England footy shirt, SatNav (which is so much fun), FM iPhone transmitter (US sports radio in the car) and a smart navy jacket…phew! Thanks to everyone…who spent far too much.
I also got masses of chocolate (always welcome) and a birthday cake. Later, Karen and I settled in for a night of baseball with a Chinese takeaway. The perfect way to round-off my birthday
