With Thanks.....

Birthday Wishes..
I have much to be thankful for but most of all 
I want to give thanks for all the wonderful birthday wishes that came my way. 
I can't tell you what a delight it was to hear the beep, beep, beep on my iphone 
as the day progressed. I plan to visit one and all over the next few days, 
but in the meantime, I want you to know that your kind words were sincerely appreciated.

To Russia with Love
Can I tell you a little secret? 
If you need to drop a few subtle hints to loved ones, do what I do, 
subscribe them to your blog. 
I know Mr. H will be reading this post en route to Russia this evening--
so to him, I send a big hug for being such an astute reader.

For months I have been dropping hints, ever so subtly, from one blog to another.
He gets an A+++ for his comprehension skills. I will now be colourfully wrapped 
in Brora (Be Still My Beating Heart, Retail Therapy)with a few books ( Recipe for Life) 
to pass the Autumn afternoons and a movie or two 
( A Kid at Heart) for our family movie nights.



A Happy Camper, I am, I am!

Friday..Saturday...Sunday..
A birthday weekend. 
I find it is best to make it last as long as you can.  
I have been in and out of London via Little Venice 
and Primrose Hill and along a few country lanes in Ripley.
All new adventures for me.





Quiet time too this weekend...
 all thanks to little surprises that appeared in the post...

From my good friend..Z...in Australia, 
a few pocket size journals for my city excursions.


and from the delightful Lisa further south in New Zealand,
words of wisdom with a book, 
'It's Never Too Late...
174 simple act to change your life'

P.S...to Lisa, I am now thinking about popping 
a similar flag on the back of my bike! I know it will not go over well with 
the kids...but as they say...'It's Never Too Late' :)


A Sunday Afternoon...
With that thought, my lovely daughter, Miss Claire and I took time
 to pop our feet up and share a few Lindt Chocolate balls ( a gift from her)
whilst watching the an oldie but goodie...



A weekend of thanks and best wishes for a lovely week ahead to one and all!
