It was my birthday on Thursday 10th July. I had a travel mug and a bookmark both with cats on from my Mum and Syd, although he had nothing to do with it. I also had £100 from them, and an extra £25 for lunch out on Friday. I also had a card. I had some pens, some pencils and a embroidery kit from Dave, Ali and the kids, except I don't do embroidery. I also had a card from them. On the front it said, "If I give you a load of Lego for your birthday, don't make a big thing out of it!" I also had some presents off my friend Dawn from Church. She gave me loads of stuff, including perfume, seeds, a necklace and a bracelet, a tiny torch, a compact mirror, a case with partitions in it which I don't know what it's for, some nivea cream (useful) some glasses wipes and some bookmarks which were in a card! Then there were also the presents to self. I got myself some vocal scores to Now Is The Month Of Maying, Swing Long Sweet Chariot, If Ye Love Me, and Lord, For Thy Tender Mercies Sake. I also got a book of the vocal scores to Phantom Of The Opera. I got a book on how to read music too! I also got myself a book called The History Of Cardiff's Suburbs. I got myself a couple of A4 display books. And I got myself a set of these things to paint with, they're like brushes but they have more solid tips to them, but I forget what they are called. I also got a couple of books about how to cope with depression. I was hoping Wynne Evans would sing Happy Birthday to me on his radio show, but he never seems to see my texts. Fortunately, a friend on Facebook WhatsApped him, twice actually, and he saw that and he sang Happy Birthday to me and wished me a Happy Birthday, so I was happy! On Friday I went shopping down town. I got some photos printed and posted a letter. I bought some gauche paints from The Works and then I went for my birthday lunch. I went to the Jungle Street Kitchen and had Salmon Catch and a Firefly Detox drink in a bottle, Kiwi, lime and mint flavour. I had a glass of ice cubes with that. It was delicious. After my birthday lunch I went up Beacon Street to find Morrisons ready for singing at the Fuse festival on Sunday with the Lichfield Tuneless Choir. It was very hot, but I had a bottle of water with me, so I had a swig of that. When I'd found Morrisons, I turned round and retraced my steps, then set off for home. What have you lot been getting up to this past week? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.
