I don't like birthdays and it was mine yesterday.Champagne?Flowers? No ,a set of hooks that go over the door, to hang our coats on.Not quite fair ,he did get me some nice 'eau de toilet'.Probably looking for toilet cleaner at the time.Better than the year I got a fold up shopping bag. It's not the getting older, it's the 'enjoy yourself' bit.It is a day for reflection and a bit like New Years Eve in that there is that conciousness of time passing but I do not need to enjoy it too.A nice bit of fresh tuna for supper and me watching the Bill and him watching football in the other room was fine.Who am I kidding ? I would love to be wined and dined expensively but it would all come out of our one bank account so it would have to be someone else paying.I have had some brilliant birthdays in the past anyway.One day perhaps one of my offspring will be rich and sweeping me off somewhere.(rush of pigs wings)
At least we can hang our coats up.
