My birthday! Mal made me a cup of tea and then I opened all my presents and cards. I had some really lovely thoughtful gifts. As well as those evidently Mal ordered some flowers to be delivered on Monday and they didn’t arrive, not even by the time we left yesterday. He is not happy about it. He also managed to leave all his charging leads at Torin’s. He quickly ordered a new lead from Amazon to be collected from Rye Post Office! He can’t function without his laptop as all his exam work is on it!
Breakfast in the hotel and then we took Ellie out for a very long walk. We then went round the antique shops and the historical places.
Then it started raining, heavy rain so we went into a pub and had a drink and then tried to decide where we could dash to for lunch. The cosiest place on a wet birthday where we knew we could take Ellie was “Edith’s House”, the same place we went the previous day. They make Ellie so welcome ! She just lies down by our table. This time we managed to get the two arm chairs at the back where all the books are. It’s a funny place they even have lots of games you can play and even a bag of knitting if you fancy doing some! It’s usually sunny on my birthday!
Back to the hotel and then in the evening we went to have my birthday dinner at Ambrette. It is a lovely restaurant, with tasters and teasers between each course (very posh!!) They have received so many awards. Excellent food, especially all the fish I had and a good wine along with it. We left Ellie in the room but Mal finished his meal with the cheese board, the best one he has ever had he said, and brought Ellie a piece back for her!!
A lovely birthday,
Thought for the Day – “Life is too short to be counting the years. Just enjoy the ride and make awesome memories.”
