Update on birthday:

• Dad & brother both phoned up. They remembered! Dad sent me a lovely decoupage card which his stepdaughter had made. The only problem with decoupage cards which we discovered when P's brother sent them to him, J & his Dad (whose birthdays are within a few days of each other) is that you have to pay more than standard postage cos they're so thick. The person sending them usually doesn't realise this. Anyway it was very nice.
• Some time we are going to go away for a weekend for my birthday, possibly to Shropshire but would rather leave it until I'm feeling a bit better & weather better cos it's wet & miserable right now although the Autumn colours are beautiful.
