Happy Birthday Ione

Its Ione's Birthday and she deserves a very special happy birthday cos she s a great friend who i don't know what i would do without.

I have a slight lack of photo's as she is slightly camera shy but here are some of the best bits:

she always has a smile and a laugh what ever the circumstances and is always there to help you see the brighter side of things and help you to realise that being stressed about x y or z is really not worth it.

She is fab cook and oh how i would love to have the imagination to have an allotment, manage to actually grow thing and then produce something from the produce. She has often made tea and meals for us and they are always scummy but Can never be recreated.

She has 4 fabulous kids and a great husband and we love to hear the tales of madness and mayhem that comes from the newall household - i would love to be as good a mum as you.

thanks for all your friendship Ione - I don't know what i would do without you.
