Finally 40 and I Feel Fabulous

I know that I am a little late with this one (as well as being behind with the blog posts this summer) but felt I couldn't let the biggest birthday so far pass without a mention. Party details and photos to follow.

I was lucky enough to be brought breakfast in bed before we boarded the train and headed off to London. We had a short look around the British museum after a pancake brunch and then off to my favourite part - the shopping.

We visited almost every store in Hatton Garden to find exactly what I wanted and I was not disappointed. The diamond necklace I chose is fabulous and I am looking for any excuse to wear it.

A few photos below including a fantastic present from Dad.

This is the great pastel drawing that dad sent me from Australia. It now has pride of place in our bedroom.
