What would you do with the time?

It's my birthday tomorrow and I enjoy celebrating birthdays and those of my family and friends. We always decorate the house for birthdays and buy the birthday person a cake. We've already been for a full family meal at the weekend and my dh is taking me for a meal at my favourite restaurant tomorrow evening. My dh and ds will make a fuss of me in the morning with gifts and a cake for later, but then they are both working. I will see my mum for an hour but I had planned to pamper myself with a few treatments at my Beauticians in the afternoon but stupidly I've left it late so they are fully booked. This is the first time in years I've had a weekday non working day as for a number of reasons I now work part-time. What would you do with the day if you had the time free? I don't want to waste most of it sitting at home or worse, cleaning!

Go to a wine bar

Wild swimming and then a picnic by the lake.

Go to the beach with a good book and a flask of tea, then go for lunch

Visit a national trust property and have a cream tea

Sit and read a good book.

Go to my gym for some light exercise followed by steam room and jacuzzi then shower and blow dry my hair there ready for my meal out

All good ideas. I live really near a beach, love reading and I'm wondering now if my hairdresser could do me a wash and blow! Unfortunately, I can't drive anywhere.

Taxi, bus, train?

Yes they are all doable as is walking to nearer places like the beach.
