I went to a 40s night with my partner Gordon and my sister Sally and her husband Chris at a local theatre ,the room was decorated in style with union jacks and all the trimming ,we were delighted to join in with a good old sing song of all the old favourites and were given a delightful supper ration box with sandwiches ,sausage rolls and crisps with trifle for pudding,it was a great evening and cant wait for the next one

On Sunday i was 65 and all my family got together for a celebration lunch down near the river in Coltishall,because i have lived away in Scotland for 15 years its the first time i have had them all together in a long while and it was wonderful,we had a lovely 3 course meal with a dessert with candle in and then moved on to another venue for drinks and live music,It was certainly a lovely day and a birthday to remember for a long while to come

I have always wanted to try my hand at painting as my sister is a super artist and i have used her paintings in my card design,the past few weeks we have been out and about doing watercolours and i am really enjoying it,this week we went to a local church and sat under the tree as weather was 29 degrees and we painted the Lychgate as yo can see my offering in the picture,I look forward to doing many more and improving
