Spoiled Rotten...

Yep... that is moi... spoiled totally rotten this weekend and I have had THE BEST birthday ever!!! Grim and I headed off for our favest place in the whole world on Saturday morning... so where is this place huh? North Yorkshire... near to Whitby but inland and it is a small little hamlet with a B&B, a pub and a beck... this will be our 8th time up there and 6th time staying at the same B&B but is is just perfection, as soon as we get there, the shoulders drop and the happiness just floods in... *and... guess what??? on the way there, we stopped off in Pickering and got proper Northern fish n chips, then drove up the Moors, sat in the car and stuffed our faces, you should have seen me, covered in grease afterwards but heck, it was worth it!!*




THANK YOU everyone for the lovely birthday messages, comments and emails...sorry I haven't been able to reply to you yet, we haven't been home long and a certain little black n white furball wanted cuddles big style.. our neighbour came in to feed him so he didn't have to go to the Cattery... he was pleased about that too :O))




I can honestly say this... I LOVE being 40!!!! Seriously, I sat there yesterday morning opening my heaven pressies and cards.. blimey, I mean I was spoiled daft... thank you everyone who sent me a card - I really loved them all and so appreciate it... I have made some wonderful pals in Blogland... *can you tell I am a bit euphoric at the moment??? LOL*




So, Grim bought me a beautiful silver pendant, it has Whitby Jet and Mother of Pearl in a checker pattern (matches Ferdy's roof - and you all know black n white is my fave) and the other side of the pendant is inlaid with pink mother of pearl... I got tonnes of stash - seriously big stylee happy dancing going on with the stash I got!!! And.. Grim bought me the pub that we go to when we are up there.. it is called the Birch Hall Inn, click the name, you can see it... yes, he bought me a pub!!! Actually, it is a scale model of the pub and cos it is my favest place in the world, he planned it all out and managed to actually get it without me sussing it out!!! Here's a pic of my birthday goodies...told ya, I was spoiled!!!




I got some CD's - the Lady GaGa one I have been wanting for yonks, I love GaGa and her voice is just beautiful... then I got a divine pen and pencil which are engraved with my name and the date, that is all I had asked for but Grim pushed the boat out for me bless him! And.. finally, I got the last hare for my collection, he is a dude, I will take a photo of them all together later and blog it.. they are beautiful...




So, between the insane ramblings of a very excited 40 year old bat, there are some pics of the North Yorkshire Moors... Grim took them, that is why they are good ROFL I have to go now though... cos... on the way home, we called back at Pickering and bought more fish n chips, brought them home and I am going to pop them into the oven and reheat them... we do that when my Dad visits (he lives next to the best chippy ever and brings 'em down for us!) So, tis time for me to eat again, I have stuffed my face this weekend... diet starts...erm...tomorrow LOL Thanks again EVERYONE... and for the Sunday Stamper comments too.. will pop by your blogs later to see what you have been up to... TTFN....

Hels x (a very happy Hels at that!!)
