Happy 80th Birthday Mum/MIL!

We started the day with a ride, then back home for mornos. Wendy then tried again to link various agencies to Dad's myGOV account, all to no avail. After lunch we had a rest before helping with the school run.

As it is Mum's birthday, she got to choose what we all had for dinner. And.... wait for it ..... Zambrero was the choice! Wendy got most of the requests and took Henry and they went into the shop at the Jamieson Centre to order and pick up the items. There were 13 orders altogether and one staff member took only 25 minutes to make them. Everyone else thought their meals were not too bad, but Wendy was not a fan, maybe it was the pulled pork that made hers not so nice? Anyway, we won't be rushing back. 

The whole family was together for the evening and we all had a good catch up. And, we weren't very late to bed either as for most it was work/school the next day.
