My birthday turned out to be rather different to how I had planned, but it was a lovely day.  After a busy half term week of visitors, we had an empty day so had decided to go to the Brighton Aquarium – just the four of us.  We set off in the van and got onto the A27 when the van started to fail (again)!  So we had to turn round and come home again; all of us girls were very cross.  After we’d had lunch we went for a lovely afternoon walk on a farm track.  The dogs really enjoyed it as they were able to run free.  We picked up some reject potatoes from the edge of the farm field and brought them home for our supper which we ate with our ham!  The next day we had Auntie Anwyl and Sophie and her family for coffee.  We had Jecca (my godmother) and David to stay from Monday to Wednesday which was really lovely.  Then on Wednesday we had my Halloween birthday party with Sheryl and her girls.  Kory didn’t enjoy it very much as Mummy, Daddy and Jennah wore masks and Daddy kept appearing round corners!  Kory said “don’t like it, want go home”!!  My final birthday event was on Thursday when my friend Joanna came for the day.  It was great to see an old childhood friend again.
