My Month in Numbers April

I thought it was time to join in with Julie's month in numbers. I've been following this fun and interesting post for some time now and I hadn't realised how easy it is to join in. All you need is a little note book (I think you've seen this before ).

 Jot a few of the numbers that you come across in your month, take a few matching photos, then blog.
So here's my month in numbers for April

4 items on my Easter table this year

2 yummy Easter eggs eaten, Creme Egg & Caramel

21 my little boy's birthday

Wow where did those years go?

1506 minutes of Downton Abbey watched during my Easter break. Apparently I have another Christmas Special to watch!!!!!

5 friends went to Ally Pally.

62 was my seat number on a very noisy train home.

43 days to go before I fly To Australia for the British & Irish Lions Rugby tour, check out Taylor's Tours.

 Can you see it's an all time record and boy was I tired when I got home.

So there's my first month in numbers. Why don't you pop over to Julie;s and join in and then I can share your month in numbers too.

A Special Birthday

This weekend I have a special Birthday no I'm not collecting my bus pass or getting the key of the door! It's more about the date So on Sunday my Birthday will be 10.10.10. When I was a little girl I had worked out that I would have this special day but now the years have rolled by so quickly and now it's here. I know I'm really lucky and that not many people will get to have a special date so we'replanning to celebrate in style. Husband has arranged "something special and I need a posh frock" and he has managed to keep it secret (not one of his strong points). The last time he arranged for us to go to Cape Town for my 50th and proceeded to ring me the week before to find out when we were due back from South Africa ! So I had a little inking what was on the cards. But this time he has been as silent as a mouse. Will let you know where we end up after the weekend.

Anyone else having one of these Birthdays?

In the meantime you can drool over the stash I managed to buy at Ally Pally last month. We had a fab time us three girls let loose in the city. We had a lovely girlie weekend, shopping, show (The Jersy Boys, a real good sing a long) eating, drinking and finally 2 full days at the show. What could be better. We thought we might give the NEC a try next year.
