Sitting here wondering if I'm Pollyanna or Eeyore - Day 343: Goodbye David and Magaret

The final At the Movies EVER. Very sad to say goodbye to David and Margaret, Waz and Fahmi came over, Steve brought his 3D glasses over - he's such an adorable goofball! - we drank wine, ate popcorn and homemade choctops and said farewell.

And Rachel sent me a shot of Jordan and Bodhi on their first ever Christmas train - so cute!

Sitting here wondering if I'm Pollyanna or Eeyore - Day 333: HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Part 3

Started the day off with a breakfast brunch at Southend, which looks likes it's in new hands, with Steve, Ellen, Tracy and Susie, who came up from The Shire via train.

We had a wonderful time, even if the food wasn't quite what it once was, talking like there's no tomorrow as is our way, before stopping for pics at St Peters station naturally ...

I went home for a nap while Steve went to get his haircut, and then that night everyone came to my place around 6.30pm for champers and nibblies - we only realised we ate too many dips, chips etc when we got to the restaurant but ah well - before we walked up Sydney Park Rd admiring the GORGEOUS to Yiamas Greek Tavern for a beautiful, yummy HUGE birthday dinner with LOTS of food, fabulous service and fun atmosphere ... and then back to my place for cake! Yay! And more shots with an inflatable Olaf Steve had kindly bought for me.
