Another Year Older, part two!

Now then, where did we get up to?
Oh, yes! The table top sale at the market hall...As I was saying, after I finished my marathon present opening session, we all wandered off down to the table top sale in our local market hall. I wasn't really expecting to buy anything as I presumed most of the stuff would be the same as last months. But how wrong I was! I shuffled around the hall as you do, and then on the last stall I spotted theses beautiful tins.
This is the back of the Ginger Wafers tin.
And then on the same stall, down on the floor I saw these two lovely pictures,

so I snaffled them up too! They're going to go side by side above my bed, when I find the hammer!(Mr Nobody seems to have had it!)
And I couldn't resist this spotty address book.
So laden down with my 'treasures', we all headed back home for lunch and a quiet afternoon snoozing, before we went out for a birthday tea at a local pub.
As you can see I had a lovely birthday weekend, topped off by walking into work on Monday morning to find a rather impressive birthday cake waiting for me. Hand made by my boss, it must have taken her ages, I was really touched.
Thank you everyone for wishing me a happy birthday!
Love Fi x
