Today is the 81st birthday of the "father" of the Forum-Derek Bacon. Happy Birthday Derek, hope you are keeping well and that the Disas are thriving.

Fred in Vienne and Pat Toolan who share the date are mere children by comparison. Happy Birthday to both.

Thank you all for the kind wishes - and especially to Maggi who never seems to forget anyone's birthday - and she always finds a great card to send.
Lesley I always tell my kids that I am 101. Let's just say I do not feel the age that I am supposed to be. Time has flown far too quickly and it seems to be speeding up each year.
I made some butterfly cakes to take into work today as I was told that that is the custom at work - the birthday person makes a cake.
Yes happy birthday wishes to Derek and Fred too.

When I reach 70, I plan to say I'm 80 and with luck, people will say "My word, she's looking very young for her age." Or maybe they'll still think "Mmmm, looks every day of it too." ???

Darren & Calvin, slightly late, I know, but difficult to photograph anything in this volatile weather but this stormy scene comes with belated wishes for your birthdays - hope you had a good one :)
