Birthday Surprise
Hiya again midweek,
I just had to update my blog today to tell you all my darling daughter Olivia came back from England for my 50th birthday. It was a huge surprise instigated by Susana and the conspirators were Oli’s boyfriend Jose Luis, Eladio and my Father.
I had suspected slightly that she might come back but quickly put it out of my head when there were no signs. And then, lo and behold, in the middle of a pretty domestic scene at home last night, in she walked, completely unannounced into our bedroom.
I sort of cried out with joy and hugged her and hugged her. It was so good to see her and now the birthday party and celebrations will be complete with her here too.
Darling, it was a wonderful surprise and thanks for the effort because I do know that coming here for just a few days means a 7 hour train journey from Falmouth to Gatwick and another 7 hours going back next Monday, not to mention the plane, etc. But, great, so great to have you here for all the celebrations and there will be many because my birthday this year is going to be a bit like an Indian wedding, lasting quite a few days. Did you expect anything less from me?
More news on Sunday.
Love to you all
Masha
