Happy birthday

Happy Birthday Mr! OK so it's a bit late, but this weekend has been a heck of a one. This happened on his actual birthday:


Only a little low speed accident, but enough to need the AA out and a courtesy car (nasty scrapy noises from that wheel). However, as we only have the one car, we needed to ask a neighbour very nicely if we could have a lift - a bit awkward as it was an hour round trip. They were very lovely though and gave us that lift, and it makes me think again how we live in such a wonderful place, both beautiful and with such lovely people!

So, lime green car with us, we headed on to R's Nana and Grandpa, only to get caught in an hours traffic jam. We got there eventually though and spent a lovely weekend there, lots of chatter and time spent with grandparents, some playing in wendy houses (if only we had space and a spare £2000, some were so lovely I would have lived in them!), exploring the garden and staring at cows over the fence. On Sunday we headed home tired but happy, to be caught in another traffic jam! Another hour of trying to entertain a car-seat bound little one whose favourite activity is walking, and worse yet it was dark - she can't see her Mummy or Daddy and so got very upset, despite near constant talking/singing from us to reassure her we were still there...

So um... Happy Birthday (?!?)... may the next year be better than it has threatened so far!
