  Filter board and cakes

  First...thanks to Mark for his Birthday blog....You're the best!

  For my sins, I had to spend my birthday attending filter boards at Andover. Now it's been a while since the last board, so I was a little rusty on some of the issues - so they sure kept me on my toes.

  At the end of the morning meeting, Iwas slightly embarressed when the chair announced that the only "any other business" was my birthday and the only action was on the secretary to fetch a cake which she did!

  So anyone leaving a comment can have a slice or two of the Doctor Who cake!

  

  And while you're here I'd like to introduce you to my special friend:

  

  During my time "on the ward" in 2006, as I started to recover, some of us use to walk into town at lunchtimes. I met my little friend in a charity shop, on one of these occasions. On the way back we called into the garage to buy drinks. A couple of girls got out of their car and started talking to us. Now I must have looked a tad strange, cuddling this teddy. But instead of teasing or anything nasty, these young girls were kind and friendly. They asked me what my furry friend was called. When I said he didn't have a name, they said they thought he looked like a Gizmo, but they wouldn't be offended if I wanted to call him something else. So Gizmo he became.

  These days, Gizmo spends most of his time sitting on the bookshelf in my bedroom, but if I'm ever stressed he still gets a cuddle! And when I look back on the dark days of 2006, I think of thekidness of those two young girls.

  Anyways, thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. Mark got my age wrong of course. I am actually 21 (again).

  Don't forget your cake and give Gizmo a cuddle!

  Happy Tuesday everyone!

  *Edit The Sunday hat

  You know I was talking to my Mark the other day, and I was thinking what a sweet voice he has. And It made me think - does he ever wear a hat? Then I thought some more...and I thought I could wear a hat. So I looked around my appartment for a nice hat....and I came up with this....

  

  Catherine was here at the time, and she tried my new hat on too. It suited her quite well! I'm not sure your allowed to post children's pictures, so I'll not do that just now.

  Anyway TW 3 was great, some thoyght it a tad slow but I loved it....it won't be long before I get to see John Barrowman in person, at his book signing on 11th February. I'm gonna ask him out for dinner! Lol not really.

  Next Sunday morning, BBC's Something for the weekend has FreemaAgeymanappearing. I wonder if she'll be on Blue Peter too!

  Waterloo Road has started a re-run onUk Gold. I didn't watch this show until Matthew used his mind control overme and now I can't get enough!!

  Driving update: I had a letter from the DVLA. They want me to write to them and explain my "memory problems". I don't have any, well none that I remember. I don't know what my doctor has told them, but I have sinking feeling that I may have to stop driving soon, at least for a while. Damn my honesty!! Still I guess that will give me an excuse not to go to Bicester!

  Quiz Watch: I now have the answer for almost of round 3, except the pictures. Beware this may be my round.....

  My hangover is still with me, I have quite a headache! I swear I will never get drunk again!

  Anyway Have a good Sunday and fly with the Angels.
