Autumn Time Birthday

Evening peeps

Well I was really looking forward to a lay-in this morning until I got a phone call from my Mum last night asking me to go up to Orpington with her early this morning, she won't drive that far on her own.

That's fine I thought, I can get a lay-in tomorrow morning instead.  That is until I got a phone call earlier asking me to go to a charity coffee morning.  As much as my body is screaming for sleep, I can't say no to anything that's raising money for charity.
