45



45 today. A quiet day, busy at work, no time to reflect or look forward.

I'll read some blogs at dinnertime. And tonight I'll watch telly and drink wine with my favourite human being of all time.



Christ, isn't my diary boring and twee?

    You'll have to be renamed "(May contain slight traces of Peril)".

    Buoyed up after watching the inspirational Royal Command Performance last night, I think you should hit the Victorian Restaurant again tonight.

    Bonne Anniversaire!!!

  8. Thank you all, especially Vicus.

    Kaz - Yes, that human being is my much younger wife.

    MJ - 33 1/3 I was travelling 170 miles at weekends to meet up with Betty. Or she was travelling 170 miles in the oppostite direction. On my 78th we'll be drinking wine, watching Corrie and Last Of The Summer Wine.

    Tim - I'm a poet and I didn't even know it.
