Thank you, all my DIS friends for these wishes
I had a great birthday.
I'll let you into a little secret. I've been going to WeightWatchers since the end of last September - my goal was to lose 1.5 stone to get a new girly ski jacket for this Easter's ski adventure. I did that and two weeks ago I had a 50lb certificate giving ceremony (3.5 stone

).
I told my leader Sue that I wouldn't be coming to the meeting next week since I would be away camping

(I must have been drunk to agree to camping . . .

) and also because it was my birthday and there was a huge chocolate birthday cake with my name on it. There was, and another one at lunchtime which my lovely friends had made with the rest of a delicious lunch for me - and there wasn't a single lettuce leaf or breadstick in sight
Out for dinner in the evening with Darryl, katie and more friends, then back to ours for champagne and the choccy cake made me probably put on half a stone - but I don't care cos I had a fabulous birthday
Thanks again everyone, you made it even more special
