Plans for a bit of stitching flew out the window as it was nicer to chat. There is always tomorrow, and I might do a bit of work on the borders tonight whilst watching a movie.
My dear daughter gave me a lovely red whistling kettle for my kitchen...which frightened the cat, resulting in this....naughty!
And my son this great trolley to make life easier when I walk to the shops or sewing group. There was a bit of hilarity about old ladies and shopping trolleys, but now everyone agrees how handy it will be.
Mum found the happiest of handbags...she thought the colours would appeal.
And I had an early visit from the florist bearing these beautiful flowers...
just beautiful, from dear SB!
And someone who is very sneaky (but delightful) left this little parcel in my letterbox...lovely.

A quiet celebration can be just as delightful. Happy Birthday, enjoy your lovely, thoughtful gifts.
Happy birthday, it look like you were spoilt which is as it should be. I thought about a granny trolley for class but I couldn't find a nice polka dot one like that. All your gifts were lovely. I had a visual of the poor cat.
