It is Brisca,s Birthday guys

Hellooooooooo everyone!!

Wow! What a lovely surprise it was to come home and find all these fab messages from you lovely lot

Yes, it's definitely MY (Sam) birthday.............I'm 21 today (twice over!)

My best pressie was that O/H returned at midnight last night, from a 3 week trip to the UK; so this morning was an extra lazy affair

We went out for a wonderful meal at 2.30.........and got home at 9.30!!
The phone hasn't stopped ringing ever since!
I had a little too much wine to drink at lunchtime, so had to have a little lie down on a park bench in the shade
Then we played at being tourists, and wandered around Trujillo taking in all the sights that we normally just take for granted.
I spent some birthday money, preparing for a trip to the Gredos mountains this coming weekend........a knee support (age is catching up!) some ear plugs (20 of us sleeping in one room in a youth hostel!) and a really unflattering waterproof hat, just in case the mountain weather is very different to the wonderful temperatures we're currently basking in!
I'm a girl who knows how to have a good time, you know!

O/H has been an absolute gem all day; making me cups of tea, waiting on me and generally just being gorgeous.
However, he says he's only doing that for one day a year, so I've now to got make the most of the next 20 minutes

Many thanks to you all for your lovely kind wishes.
Love Sam xx

PS Matt, I'm only half Scouse!!

Hey Lionda!

How lovely to see you back on here
I haven't had the computer on much just lately, so might have missed you being back for a while??
I do hope all is well with you, and that you're settling into your new way of life.
Are all the "issues" with your house sorted out yet? I hope so!
I'll have to have a good look through the threads, and see if I can catch up on your news.

Thank you for your good wishes for my birthday It's been a fab day!

Love to you,
from Sam x

Hi Jean

Thank you for all your lovely birthday greetings.

Yes, it's wonderful to have Keith home again
There was a fair bit of rain in the South West during his stay, but he managed to help his brother do a lot of the jobs on his list - even if they had to pop in and out between downpours sometimes!

However, they weren't affected to the extent that the poor souls in Yorkshire have been
Have just been reading through some of the news stories on the BBC, and it sounds horrendous.
Let's hope there's some respite soon.

Are things OK with you, where you are?? I do hope all that work you've been doing in your house hasn't been affected by floods!!?

Love Sam x

Many happy returns Sam...glad you have had a lovely day.
