Got up at 0700 still nursing my heavy cold. Stuck marshmallows on mum’s birthday cake to read “92”. Flowers arrived from the southern Hague Clan. Breakfasted at the dining table and mum opened her presents. Drove into Ponteland for coffee at the new cafe set up by the chefs at Hjemme in Hexham. It was very disappointing. Had planned to drive on to the coast but it was decided to return to High View…Aki and I picked up pizzas from Rialtos and did a little shopping in Waitrose. Pizza lunch in the back garden. Brought out the chocolate cake with the marshmallows on it. Sat about reading and chatting in the back garden before I headed down to Darras to pick up an Indian takeaway for everyone. We sat at the dining table. Watched a bit of telly before Jim and Emma headed off in the van to Westerhope. Watched highlights of Sunderland’s 3-0 win over West Ham…we were briefly top of the league until Man City won 4-0…
