Last night we finally had the official birthday dinner for myself and Ben, at Cafe Platia, Burke Road, Camberwell. We had a banquet, and there was so much food to eat we certainly felt we got our money’s worth - the food was divine, the atmosphere wonderful, and the company second-to-none. All-in-all it was a fantastic night out. Fraze surpassed himself and brought a caramel cheesecake with birthday candles for us - it was the perfect end to a great evening. We then had an unexpected bonus, as we drove back to Croydon to stay at a friend’s house for another chat … unfortunately, though, I’m working today so not overly thrilled having to drive an hour home to just have a shower and drive halfway back again - but it was nice to be able to catch up for a bit longer. Have to admit to having a sore head today, but more from the lack of sleep than over-excessive alcohol (although there was definitely more than 1 or 2 glasses imbibed haha).

Unfortunately, not everyone is in the photo - Fraze, Dawn, and Gavin are missing.
So, just a very quick post, as I need to jump into the shower and wake myself up … thankfully today is the last day of 7 working days, and I get Mon/Tue off this week before I get to play on the Hotline again for another two weeks yippee
Considering I only got a few hours sleep last night, I’ll need no extra rocking to sleep tonight! LOL. At least I get two days to play with a needle for a change, seeing I haven’t seen one much just lately!

What a great birthday bash you had with your friends! And I agree with Isabelle, you looked smashing in your little black dress.
You definitely deserved to have such a wonderful time and I’m glad you really lived it up. I hope that your shift went smoothly and that you get lots of stitching and relaxing done on your days off!
