By the time you see this, dear reader, we will almost be landing in our favourite city in the world (bar London), Amsterdam for a much-needed mini-break for my birthday on Saturday!
There is only one song left to play, really...
"Normal" service will be resumed in about a week.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Have a terrific time - I'm sure you will!!

Thanks, sweetie - we had a fun time! Jx
DeleteHow lovely, give my love to De Wallen.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday for Saturday!
We stayed right in the heart of it, my dear - right opposite the prozzies next to the Oude Kerk. There were windows for rent but we decided a hotel might be more comfy. Jx
Deleteerm… just out of interest, how much is it to rent a window nowadays?
DeleteProbably more than the hotel room... Jx
