Happy birthday to you

Another year, another grey hair.

For ME that is.

You wouldn’t know M had clocked up another year.

The four of us went to Kew Gardens which was a first for me. If you haven’t been, I highly recommend a trip there.

A Henry Moore exhibition was nearing completion so we were able to admire his sculptures before anyone else, we pretended to be badgers and crawled through a specially designed sett – or is it set? – saw the tallest greenhouse plant in the world (a Chilean wine palm), stood agog at the amazing structures built by the Victorians, walked for bloomin’ hours through beautiful parkland (all 300 acres of it) and never got bored once in 8 hours.

The children loved it too, with only one dodgy moment where the food bag ran dry. Apart from that single near miss (which could’ve gotten very ugly), all was well.

Another wonderful day thanks to ma famille.

Well, my love, with next year being a leap year, you can enjoy an extra day of being 38.
