Mother's birthday

Yesterday was mother's birthday, so I got down there early on to take her a card and present. Later on Angie and John arrived from Colchester for a pre-arranged weekend visit. While they were there the 2 boys popped down to see them, and then later still Suzie & I paid then another visit before returning home as I had a "taxi run" to do to take Fred & Addie to the railway station at the start of their 2 week summer vacation - they are flying off today to have some fun in the sun and would have been catching the train to London this morning except there were no trains in the UK today.

Anyway, I think mother enjoyed her birthday even if she did look very tired. John's leg muscle is repairing after a very bad strain which he got at work over a month ago. His employers have been good and put him on very light duties since he returned but every now and then he gets a twitch to remind him that all is not yet right.

By the way -- Happy 74th Birthday Mum! From all of us.
