Happy Birthday To You.

Happy Birthday to Vin for today, a sprightly 68 although he says his knees are going! His Princess didn't wake him up this morning but she was waiting when he went down to get coffees. Jane rang early to wish him a Happy Birthday too which was nice, she was off to Tesco later because she needed some bits and pieces for the weekend. 
We went off to Dobbies this morning for a coffee I said i would treat him because we have used our vouchers for the month already. Had a bit of a mooch first  and noticed that  the first signs of Christmas things going up. Loads of cards and calendars and  the first decorations up too. Big sale of garden things now as well mostly barbecues and chimneas. Just the thing for the rainy day it is today. We had our coffees then, I had a flat white in a poncey little cup and Vin had a latte with hazelnut syrup which he likes.  Shopping then to get our cherry cake, shortbreads and some pasta sauce and also tea lights which were on offer. So a successful trip and a treat!
Actually the weather is very patchy today, we went through bright sunshine and rain as well. Very odd.  It is a strange journey because you quite often go through patchy weather. Home to a fairly dry home  and dry roads 
Jessie was fast asleep in her basket when we got home, not one for greeting you at the door that one, she did plonk herself right in the doorway when I came down from getting changed though!

Nice picture of a posing cat!
