Thanks so much to all of you who took the time to leave birthday wishes for me - they are very much appreciated. I did have a wonderful birthday; some great pressies, a lie-in, a relaxing lunch with my DH and daughters, then a great evening party with friends and family sharing champagne and lots of good food!
No doubt the refuse collectors get a good idea of what's going on in people's lives from their job; it was obvious from the excess of empty bottles and cans what had happened the night before at our house!
No pics this time as we're having computer problems - but trusty DH is on the case and normal service will be resumed soon. :-)
I did receive some gorgeous yarn as a pressie from my lovely friend Fiona - but you'll have to wait for pics. I also received a great Amazon gift voucher from my brother and his family - which I immediately spent on a dyeing book and a sock book. Can't wait for those to arrive.
The other gifts were either chocolate, wine, more champagne, or money. The chocolates have almost gone, the alcohol is being enjoyed more slowly, and the money is earmarked for more yarn of course! I may be visiting the Knitting and Stitching Show at the NEC on Friday 15th September - are any of you thinking of going along on that day?
So that's that. Being 40 seems to be ok so far. I get to have a toy-boy for a while again too - DH isn't 40 until next January.. ;-)

I'll be on the Knit & relax stand with Fred for some of the day, would be lovely to meet you ;-)
I've got a similar birthday in three weeks....
I'm glad you had such a lovely day! Not sure if I'll make it along to the NEC now of course!!!
Belated Happy Birthday - sorry I missed it.
Glad you had a grand birthday. I did mean to email but got sidetracked! I'm at the NEC all four days so you must come and make yourself known!
Sounds like you had a fab birthday (it's mine in two days). I'd love to go to the show at NEC but don't think I'll be able to make it this year. A bit too far from Cornwall. I'm going to the Get KNitted open day on 2nd September in Bristol though.
Belated birthday wishes. Sounds like you had a great time! :-)
