Birthday Happenings....

The new garden/lawn mower person turned up yesterday to do the lawns. This morning I was running late and got a knock on the door, and it was the tradies to fix the pelmet in my room, fix the toilet (which had started to leak again in a different spot to last time) and to install an exhaust fan for the bathroom.  Good thing I was running late, as I had no idea they were coming today. In fact I was going to put in a maintenance request when I got to work! So I'll see what had happened when I get home.

The Chocolate High Tea and the overnight stay ion the city were great!  We should do a High Tea when you come down next time.  In the end there were 5 other and me, which made for a nice group actually.  They all got together and got me a $90 Spotlight Gift Card too!  We spent the entire 2 hours of the high tea talking and eating and drinking.  I had a Mocha Coffee to start then had 2 pots of tea and a glass of sparkling too! Needless to say I didn't drink anymore tea for the rest of the weekend! 

We wall walked down to where I was staying for the night, to check it out.  The room was lovely and just what I wanted.  We all then went downstairs to the DFO and the shopping commenced! LOL!! After all that my feet were super sore, lucky I didn't have far to go!  Had planned to go out for dinner by myself, but decided to order in room service. I had a bath and was all relaxed and dreamy, then had dinner and watched a movie, then went to sleep!  The next day I had a leisurely shower, re-packed my bag & checked out.  I took myself off to have pancakes for breakfast then home.

I then needed to go to the supermarket and get some stuff for the week, so decided I needed to go to Spotlight too.   I bought some lovely kimono style materials (which I will take a foto of later) and some other materials.  I still have some money on it too!
