Happy Birthday!

I'm trying to recall where I have been since 20 August & can only assume that I've been asleep - asleep during the possible hours of blogging that is, that is, after dinner.
I did go to the hairdressers on Saturday, thanks to P, who gave me a voucher for a new beauty salon in Solihull, a raffle prize. I spent the afternoon ironing, to make up!
After church on Sunday we cut the hedge - 6 hours of hard labour & still half of the top to do, & that's only the hedge in front of the house. G does all of the really heavy, skilled work.
Yesterday I did housework, the first since going to Denmark, & I missed bits!
I went to Bicester for a sleepover & to have a few days with T & KP.
We went to Kenilworth Castle,which is half-way home, to join in a "Villains & Rogues" day.
Gentleman Ben (really),a mounted highwayman, enacted stories, with a nobleman & a law enforcement officer & the help of the children. We had lunch in the stables & did bits of the castle, shopped in the "best supermarket in the world...possibly", bought smelly wellies & came home for tea.
T, KP & G are still asleep!
I have to phone aj to commiserate!
We plan a day in B'ham at The Think Tank (science museum) & possibly a MacDonalds.
It's chilly here - the heating came on last night, with only a minor adjustment.
Many thanks for the cards & pressies, yet to be opened.
I shall enjoy the day

I helped granny open her cards and pressies after breakfast.
