It's my birthday in a few days and my lovely parents and Pop came down for a celebratory dinner tonight.

Dinner: Indian takeaway. Presents: great black jumper and huge wok (parents and Pop) and the new Kate Grenville book (parents in law). I've already had Harry Potter from the family and now have to wait until Tuesday for the rest!

The other exciting thing for the day was... ta dah... my new hair colour.

Husband came home from the supermarket with a box of black hair dye (he went out for coffee, icing sugar and milk) and said, "Hey let's try this!" He read all the instructions and put it on for me and now I look super-cool!
If you're in Mittagong on Thursday, join me for birthday lunch with some friends. Email for details as to when and where!
