It’s my birthday

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me…
Naice is taking me to the new PIZZA HUT tonight! Oh, it’s all very well for you lot to scoff, but if you had to put up with Manaus pizzas for a year or so, you’d be looking forward to it too. I also got a nice new waterproof watch - boating, for the use of - and lots of e-cards (and two good old-fashioned paper jobs as well). Thanks for all your sarcastic comments about my advanced years and the various suggested presents such as pipe, slippers and Viagra (an interesting combination).
I’m looking forward immensely to the next fifty years.

Thanks Peter - and don't think I appreciate it! oo

And thank you Jennifer, sweetness! Last time I saw you, you were 'in a state of disrepair'. Glad to see you're somewhat more coherent now. I miss our warm and loving conversations! xx
