The Birthday Gift

I

It seemed a little odd this year, my birthday appeared and went quite quietly being so far away from everyone.  That is not to say, however, that I missed out on anything!  My mum, who is never one to be caught out, made sure I had a card and gift in my suitcase before I left the UK!  Thanks mum!  I have my first all singing all dancing sewing machine!  Lovely Man bought the perfect gift.  He knew I was getting a little ticked off at there being no bears in the back yard so he bought me my very own bear and cub from the local gift shop!  Thank you also to all my friends and family who sent cards and birthday wishes via email!  To round off the day we found a local cafe on the outskirts of town with free Wi-Fi AND CAKE!  What more could I ask for?!
