For life

Tired, faux hangover after last nights escapade. Cold and wintery morning. Flower picking and bunching with Jane before meeting flora at 12 to get our TATTOOS!!!
We were both VERY nervous but the tattoo artist was lovely. It wasn't as bad as we expected, although I did shout a very rude word very loudly at on point.
I offered to make something to ring to Flora's birthday dinner but in Stewart's words "If she brings a morsel of food she'll have to sit on the roof " . He made a Delicious aubergine, apricot and cashew curry and tarka dal - it was truly delicious! We then watched flo open all her presents and just chatted. They are like my second family, I feel totally at home with them, I'm so grateful to have them in my life.
