Hi, for the last 10 years on & off I’ve wondered what I’d be doing for my 40th birthday, 2007 arrived & I found that I was going to be in the middle of a mini European tour with the chaps when my big day hit so that answered that. However, Germany & Austria are no longer happening so I will be home for my birthday after all. No time to find a hired venue for a party so I think a nice social in a local watering hole will have to do the trick on this momentous occasion.
Therefore I shall be in the Playhouse (St Georges Street, Norwich) from 7.30pm onwards, it would be awesome to see anyone who can make it down there.
Obviously I’d love to share it with as many family & friends as poss, and your presence rather than your presents would be a really cool gift. Apologies for the short notice, rock’n’roll eh? I wouldn’t be forty without it!
Ello! Happy Saturday to you, Tina and Tom!!!
Lovely seeing you all last weekend and so much fun cramming us all in the car...actually it wasn't really a crm was it, quite a comfy little journey really. We should do it again sometime!!! Katy (your sister out-law)
i saw him! i saw him!! i'm going to make the photo of you holding tom at a really weird angle my wallpaper... it's time to retire Lady in the Water wallpaper since it comes out THIS FRIDAY!
