I had a dream with Roota in it last night!
We were singing together - she did a cracking version of 'Crazy' (figures) then we did 'The First Cut is the Deepest'.
Strange thing is we did the whole songs - I didn't think dreams lasted that long.

Off for brekkie now then shopping for Mrs. Vest's 50th birthday pressie . All and any ideas welcome.

Are you telling fibs?
That dream sounds too much like me for it not to have happened.

I hereby declare today National I Dream Of Roota Day.

Edit: WHatever you get her, make it something she can keep forever. Don't get something that's fine and dandy now, but will eventually need replacing.

Well, we got my mum pearls
Jewellery is a good bet. But get whatever you've seen that she likes and wears.
Is she silver/gold/modern/traditional/celtic?

Fiftieth then it's got to be jewellery.
Something expensive but understated. A nice fine white gold chain with a single diamond pendant.

Go to Tiffanys jewellery on-line.

We knows.
Maybe in your dream we were Present Hunters.

Thanks, Ladies.
Jewellery was my thinking. I'll have a look round, but in fact I have a cunning wheeze. The weekend of her birthday we are going away to the town where her favourite jweller has a shop. So she could choose something herself. Or - this is the cunning bit - if she finds something she likes, I can put her off and send my daughter back to get it after. Then give it to her later that night. (I'm sooo glad this is Saturday and I can type a line like that without the usual responses!)

Off now - maybe later, prolly Monday.
