"600 Months (and 1 Week)!....

......or 18,262 days, 438,288 hours, 26,297,280 minutes, but hey, who's counting" (as my son put in my card).  That's how old I am today!! Some of these numbers don't seem big enough to equal 50 years!

My daughter made me these delicious cup cakes.


I received lots of beautiful flowers from family.....

 .....and friends.

 I'll need to get advice on keeping this alive.  Any tips will be gratefully received.


OH, daughter and fiancé and I spent part of the day at Caerleon. Despite living only 20 minutes away from these Roman ruins, I've never been to see them.  We saw the amphitheatre (above), the museum and the Roman baths.  It was absolutely freezing, but the sun was out and apart from the amphitheatre, the rest of the attractions were indoors.  After a pub lunch we headed home for more cards and prezzies (including a subscription to Craftseller magazine, and vouchers for a wool shop and afternoon tea for 2) before a group of 16 friends and family headed out for a meal in the evening.

Back with more crafting next time!

Bye for now
