Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me....

What a day.

Seriously what a day.

You could not have asked for a nicer bunch of friends to come and share a day with you.

My family were there, my extended family were there.

A hybrid - Birthday, House-Warmer, Fund-Raiser for Tabitha.

We ended up $1200 richer for Tabitha - Roy Boy burning a hole in my pocket mate, so on it's way later to you for October.

Started in the morning with Ollie and Jude just sort of chilling with each other - clearly Ollie now has a tummy like a bean bag - look how comfortable Jude is in there!!!

The start at 3pm.

Go til midnight.

Gin & Tonics at 8am with neighbour (yeah thanks for that Stevey!!!)

Even the cake was 'related' to a favourite past-time.

Thanks to my beautiful Mary for that.

As you can imagine it went down very well - scuse the pun!!!

Lovely people.

Just lovely people.

Thank you all so much for making this a very special day!!!

Whoops I've fallen.

Phew no I haven't - just blowing out candles - phew!!!

Sorry who's birthday?

Jude have you been having a sneaky G&T - looking good Son!!!

Amazing even at this age he still has his own teeth!!!

Smiles all round!!!

And again!!!

And again!!!

And again!!!

And again!!!
