Birthday Girl

Having said our farewells to the pooch, we all heading back to Hey Top.
The kids played upstairs whilst Alex set about busying himself removing shelves & all things hanging on the walls.
I got myself ready to head out to meet Caroline for her Manchester birthday outing. Unfortunately Alex couldn't make it, having not been able to switch around things with Sinead. I was disappointed to have to go alone but sometimes things like this happen. Hopefully there will be other opportunities to go out together like that.
The night though was lots of fun! I stepped out of my comfort zone again & wore my bright pink sparkly lipstick (which I now love!!) & we indulged in plenty of cocktails too.
Caroline seemed to have a good time & I enjoyed seeing Tracy too. 2 sets of last trains were caught, whilst the birthday girl got a city sleep over.
It was good to chat, laugh & reminisce - note to self, must do more often!
