What do I want for my birthday?

[teawamutu]

Apart from world peace, women's rights and universal vaccination, obvs.

I'm going to be 45 in a few weeks.

Family and dh are asking for present ideas, and I could ask for books or yet more sewing stuff, but wondered if the geniuses of MN had got anything lately that I wouldn't think of?

My birthday's in a couple of weeks. I couldn't think of anything I wanted but the other day I read a thread that mentioned a facial epilator so I'm going to ask for one of them, given the lack of salons at the moment! I have also decided I'd like a really good pillow, as I'm waking up with backache and stiff neck and I think my current pillow is responsible!

Place marking - birthday in a few weeks.

My ideas so far are:
New wellies (only got short Joules ones which are no good when v muddy)
New socks
New pyjamas
A silk pillowcase
Perfume
Something fun to do post-Covid
Gin
Hotel Chocolat
? Ring Fit Adventure for Nintendo Switch

Sarah Raven voucher for dahlias and other garden goodies.
