So things have been a little quiet on the blogging front but that was because I had a special and significant birthday to celebrate – lots of planning, lots of visitors from all over the place – overseas even! – and lots of FUN!

Naturally I would have to have a theme – and there were many references to children’s literature.

I felt the most appropriate choice of character and costume for me was Mme Irma Pince the Head Librarian from Hogwarts. Planned the costume for months and had lots of special details organised, including library card earrings!!!

Next week it will be back to reviews – in the meantime I will keep enjoying my visitors!
