Small celebration

Sheila says she doesn't have birthdays any more, so this is not one, obviously. But she still got some pressies and cards this morning, and we're having steak tonight, courtesy of the organic butcher yesterday.

We've had a quiet day, as you'd expect, a walk round the marina, guzzling partaking of deluxe hot choc (with marshmallows and whipped cream) in the Willow Tree, then watching my gift to her this afternoon, in the shape of a DVD of the Royal wedding; a chance for some unashamed sniffling, in my case because I'm still getting over this cold.

/hmm

Plus, I see what they were going on about re the MoH's dress.

Tomorrow, we set off for Alrewas, so we're hoping that the forecast lull in the wind does indeed occur.
