Not everyone is remembered on their birthday, so I thought it would be good to have a birthday thread. smile

Anyone celebrating today ?

NanKate, I have made a mental note of your recommendation, for my 70th next June.

Happy birthday to all the other family member mentioned. sunshine

That is spooky Alea, I was only thinking of Greatnan yesterday, I didn't know when her birthday was. I also remember her with great affection. flowers

Yes; I often think of her, too.

Thank you everyone for your kind words, do have a glass or two of wine on me.

Shysal it is the cafe at the Quince Tree we use the pub us far too pricey but it is the same kitchen and chefs. The setting is just beautiful.

We will be having smoked salmon sarnies tonight, delicious chilled white wine, a fruit tart and meringues with raspberries. Plus a basin full of the Rugby. grin

This may be an odd thread to choose to write about the anniversary of my dear dad's death 27 years ago today. But here goes with my explanation.

Today I bought a rather expensive room spray which has geranium in it. The aroma immediately reminded me so much of an aftershave my dad used to wear. Now call me daft but the moment I sprayed it in the room I remembered dear old Bill and I felt it was just a reminder that he is still with me. smile
