Rachel’s birthday today! She’s 27 which is weird because in my head I’m still 32…. As is traditional I went through old photos trying to find something embarrassing! We are busy clearing out a bedroom at the moment so it was convenient that I came across a box of photos in the process. I had thought it contained children’s ’artwork’ and I was minded to chuck it out which is amazing because I’m a very nostalgic tidier and terrible at throwing away. Anyway plenty of the photos should be thrown really but obviously I didn’t - maybe when I have to find a home in the new cupboards they’ll go!! I sent this photo to Rachel as she’s busy writing her thesis up - she says it feel like this is a record of her starting the process! It’s taken at the London Transport Museum which was (& I’m sure still is) a great day out for kids.
Weather: lovely
Covid: Nigel full of cold so dispatched for a proper PCR test
Good thing: I called the hospital to ask if I could still go for my MRI and they said to follow NHS guidelines around cough/fever/anosmia. Since Nigel had none of those symptoms and we both got negative lateral flow tests I went. It was all very Covid secure which was a relief.
My daughter turned 37 yesterday which is even weirder as in my head I'm only 35. I too dig around for an embarrassing childhood photo to plaster all over FB. Happy birthday to Rachel
Your daughter is the same age as ours. Like you, I still feel I'm in my 30s, so it's a tad worrying! This is a great photo, and I love your daughter's comment!
Good luck with your MRI, it's quite noisy and futuristic :-) Hope you get the results quick and help with your back soon x
