Yesterday was my 49th birthday! I had some lovely presents:
Jamie's 30 Minute Meals Recipe Book, Any Human Heart DVD,
lots of gardening bits, lots of gorgeous flowers and a fantastic portrait from my youngest daughter.
The day was rounded off by yummy chocolate cake and my weekly dose of CSI.
Yes, I had a lovely day apart from the fact I am recovering from a bad back. I guess I'm fortunate really because I have only suffered back problems a handful of times. I am almost completely back (excuse the pun) to normal now, but there is still the hint of pain and stiffness if I do certain things, like vacuuming, (I don't miss that), and the last two sessions at my upholstery class have been out, (I do miss that).
It is so frustrating though because tonight I am joining the audience of Radio 4's 'Any Questions' and we have to sit on school chairs for over two hours.
I love 'Any Questions' - far less ego polishing and bashing than BBC1's 'Question Time'. At least, as it is on radio, nobody will see me sitting like I have a board attached to my back. I just hope I don't have to read out my question!
