Oh my ... what a birthday with a twist in the tail

I have had a wonderful birthday so far today.

John has been a star and tried really hard to make things good for me. He got me one of the things off my wish list which I do keep telling myself I am going to stop playing with but it's just so cool I have to keep having a go. It's one of those robo-raptor things and it's just such fun. Zoey gave me some things she took from a book of hers which was really sweet of her. Daisy got me a Discworld novel ... Matt and ZoƩ got me a t-shirt each with Matt additionally getting me a Spidey potato head. There has been other stuff of course but that's the basics.

Robin did me proud with a fantastic meal and wonderfully unhealthy cake. There was a small panic over his car but that was sorted quick enough not to cause a problem.

I have been txt'd by 3 people to say happy birthday and got some cards too.

Everyone else in the house is doing their own thing now so I thought sitting down at the PC would be a cool thing to do. I suddenly got a yellow announcement message pop up and when I checked it was an Ebay notification ... the car has reached the £3400 reserve ... effectively it is now sold and fingers crossed nothing happens to go against that, this now means we can relax and enjoy the new car ... the only thing in question now is just how much it will go up to. I am going to be so angry if this bidder pulls out but he seems OK, has a good rating and 93% positive feedback. The only negative was when he/she apparently didn't turn up ... I so hope that isn't for a car!

There is no significance in the blog entry title, it just happens to be the date today! So, what happened since March 10 when I wrote my last entry?

Beforehand we went to the Meadowhall Shopping Centre for lunch and to kill some time. Probably spent too much money, a recurring theme of recent months. A lovely day albeit for a challenging return journey when the M1 was closed.   Now, what did we do on March 18th? Hmmm .... Ah yes, we got married! Link here to Pictures It took several weeks of planning calling in every favour we could, saving money where ever possible. I often think these cheaper weddings are the best. I think it's unlikely even with all the essential costs for the cere...
