Thank you everybody for your lovely birthday wishes
the roses are gorgeous too!
Even nature gave me a present and put a few gallons of water into the butts, watered the garden for me and then sent glorious sunshine later.
I had a lovely day and felt very pampered. On the eve of the day we stayed with friends. MIL came in the morning for a slice of cake. Later we enjoyed a Chinese banquet buffet dinner, then a long walk where we listened to skylarks and a few 'bubbles' to round off the evening. Seeing kids and partners next weekend (midway between mine, OH's and Son's birthday).
