Happy Birthday

to me!  Yes today is my Birthday and I'm 42 years young.  I'm spending it quietly at home - it is my day off - fighting off a cold. 

As it is my birthday, I thought I show you a layout from my 40th Birthday celebrations.  I was lucky enough to enjoy a private capsule on the London Eye with my close friends and family, with champagne and canopies served.


This is the photo that they take during your flight.  As you can see we all crammed in.  If you lift the photo, it tells the story of the day.  My husband organised that whole day as a surprise - I was told the day before I was going on the eye but thought it would be just my family and certainly didn't imagine it would be private capsule!  Although I didn't realise until after the day, the management of the whole thing had  proved quite stressful for him.  Not least because it couldn't actually happen on my birthday because of various guests being unavailable - I of course did not know this and was a little peeved not to actually be going out on my actual birthday.  We were also meant to meet up before hand at my brother in laws flat for drinks but he managed to book a business trip to New York, meaning hubby had to do some last minute re-arrangements to find a suitable meeting venue.  All this done without me finding out!  


In the end everything was fine - it was a lovely, lovely day.  The weather was perfect - blue skies and you could see for miles.  However I don't think hubby will be organising another surprise soon!
