turlough Your parcel arrived, thank you so much! I'm waiting until tomorrow to open, but am thrilled to have a surprise on my birthday. ♥

We went to see Thriller Live at the theatre on Thursday, and enjoyed it a lot. Everyone was encouraged to stand and dance at the end, and the energy was amazing. Such a good show. I've also been to see Black Panther, which was fabulous, too. But it needs to be added to the list of films James has fallen asleep to. In his defence, we were at the cinema with recliner seats and they had the heat cranked up high. So the chance of him drifting off was always going to be high. But yes, such an amazing film.

On Monday we're going to Amsterdam. It's a three day trip, overnight on the ferry to get there, a day in Amsterdam and then home. It's the first time I've ever left the country, and while I'm not nervous as such I've probably read every review and trip advisor report about the ferry crossing and Amsterdam itself that's out there.

We're not there long so won't get the chance to do everything I want, but even so, I'm looking forward to going a lot.

It arrived in time, hooray!! I was late in mailing it (of course!) so I was a little worried it wouldn't get there until next week.

I'm firmly convinced James can fall asleep to anything :-) But it's good to hear you've been enjoying yourselves.

I hope you'll have a wonderful time in Amsterdam!

And since I'm sure I'll manage to forget it tomorrow otherwise: a slightly too early HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! You're the bestest friend anyone could have and I hope you'll have a fabulous day tomorrow. Also, have some virtual cake *points towards icon*

Happy happy birthday, Terri! Hope you have a lovely day and a great trip following!

Happy birthday! And Amsterdam is lovely - good choice for a first trip abroad, I hope you leave a fantastic time!

Have a lovely time Abroad!

Hope you have a wonderful trip, I'm sure you will love it! Are you going to see Anne Frank's house?

Your parcel came very fast. I'd love to know why sometimes things arrive fast between us and sometimes take forever. You'd think it would stay constant.

He really can fall asleep to anything. It amazes me, I'm sure his ears close off or something when he drops off.

Thank you for such a lovely birthday greeting, and the lovely virtual cake ♥

Thank you so much for the birthday greeting! ♥

I had a brilliant time in Amsterdam. I'd go again in an instant.

Thank you!

I had an excellent time, thank you!

I had an excellent time!

Sadly we didn't have time to go to Anne Frank's house. Which is a shame as I'd love to go. But, it's something for next time.
