Comments :-)

Thank you for all your comments.. indeed I am a very lucky girl having such generous relations, and relations in law ;-) and I appreciate the wonderul cards and pressies I got!

My three best cards... an extremley naughty funny one from Anti.. the promise of a stripper on the front.. and inside a rather bulgy naked cartoon man with a willy that whizzed round and round to music!! I, and the various kids thought it was great but I think my mum was (or pretended to be) a bit shocked. Sadly Ive left it at my mums house (had to hide it to prevent the kids wearing the battery out) but I will get it back soon, and scan it in :-)

Other best card was a very cheeful rainbow one from Dreaded Mum in Law.. I think she must know I have had a passion for rainbows for many years so its bright cheerful ness was just perfect :-)

My mum and dad got me a card that was a bit plain on the front, but inside mum had stuck a photo of me, aged 10 months walking around with a little trolley of bricks - very cute.. and whats more.. she still has the dress I was wearing!! Ahhhh :-) Will scan that in too :-)

As for Jaks comment.. Brits tend to think that Americans over do the "ahhh factor" but then they probably think we all have stiff upper lips :-)
