WHAT I GOT FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!

This is going to be a photo-heavy post.

These are most of the gifts I received from my parents, siblings, nephews, nieces and my fiancee.
I won't list who bought what, or where everything is from, but I have also shown everything in a video on my YouTube which will have more detail.

If you want to know more about anything you see here, leave a comment and I will get back to you very soon!

I also got some sweets, a thorntons toffee cake, a lot of scratchcards and a lottery ticket.
I went to see Tomorrowland at the cinema and I really enjoyed it.
I'm so grateful for everything that I received, I can't wait to use it all!

Don't Let The Pigeon Drive The Bus - Mo Willems

When the driver leaves the bus temporarily, he gives the reader just one instruction: Don't let the pigeon drive the bus! But, boy, that pigeon tries every trick in the book to get in that driving seat: he whines, wheedles, fibs and flatters. Will you let him drive? Told entirely in speech bubbles, this is a brilliantly original book.

I borrowed this book from the library so don't have my own copy. This photo is borrowed from this blog.

I read this book on a trip to the library a few years ago. The illustrations are great and the story is told speaking directly to the reader. The pigeon is pleading with you to let him drive the bus and I found it hilarious. I was crying with laughter every time I turned the page. Yes I was 22 at the time. But it's such a good book. There are other books in the series too.
There was a live action play not long after I read it which I watched with my fiancee and we loved it. It was so funny and so well done. If the play is touring any time I recommend you watch it, even if it says it's recommended for the very young.
