The big birthday

I sort of thought that I might not reach my 70th birthday after all the ups and downs this year. Fortunately I did, and my two daughters arranged a vintage tea party for me at the local club. They did a wonderful job and everyone said how well they had done. The cake they ordered had 2 greyhounds on the top, modelled like Fidget and Scooter. I could put dozens of photos up but I shall just pick one, and I won't tell you if I'm in it or not!!!!!!! I asked for donations rather than presents. It took me days to recover. Chatting so much made me very breathless.

Catch up with you guys again very soon. x

How lovely FAS, you were spoilt. Surely that’s you sipping tea with the seven zero balloons? Or has someone stolen your thunder?

Hope you’re recovering and look forward to seeing you again soon perhaps?

Take care xxxxx

Sadly, Scooter is no longer here, but the lady who made the cake was asked to include him. Fidget did have lots of treats. x

Sorry i forgot that your scooter,unlike the beast of another species that you keep in the garage was no longer with us but i am sure that fidget will gladly partake of treats sufficient for two. :) x

Apart from my daughters and their offspring, I did not invite any of my family. Then my sister phoned me a couple of days beforehand and demanded to come down from Lincolnshire to see me. After a conversation I invited her but made her promise not to talk to my daughter about a particular subject. Some hope but it wasn't fisticuffs outside!!!

Happy Birthday to You! How lovely that you, your family and friends got to spend such a milestone together. x

Great to hear from you again and by the sound of things,you are doing ok ,or as ok as ok can ever be .... I mean you couldn't have upset your daughters after all the trouble they'd gone to, to give you a wonderful birthday party! I will get my 007 specs out and try and spot you in the photograph. (Although you did say you only may be in it or maybe not ?) Not to worry,I have many other tricks up my sleeve. No I'm not a magician but have been known to solve the "who's who" in the photograph,so I shall be trying to solve the dilemma of Which one am I?

Sorry,I'm only having fun. For a moment I imagined myself as a super slooth, ..... too much time on my hands I'm afraid.

Keep well.

Happy belated birthday and well done for reaching the milestone 70.

80 next? So good of your daughters to arrange it and order such a lovely cake.

It all looks nice and calm on the photo, no apparent fisticuffs.

Hope you've recovered from all the talking.

Take care and hope to hear from you soon
