It is election time, voting is soon
to take place for council members. At the same time we’re asked to vote for a
Member of the European Parliament, voting from a list of eleven parties, each
with seven candidates, all of different persuasions, some we've never heard
of, or indeed their parties. There has been little or no information about any except
the main candidates. It should be interesting bearing in mind the general dissatisfaction
felt about our top political parties. I have voted already because we have
postal votes, a good thing because my mind is cluttered with thoughts about
tomorrow’s birthday.
Yes folks, it’s here, well it will
be tomorrow. The big day, or rather the BIG birthday will be reported
on after the event, with photographs if daughter manages to get some. I
can’t believe I have reached this grand age but am enjoying the looks of shock
on people’s faces when they hear which birthday it is. Apparently I don’t look
much more than seventeen.... yeah and if you believe that, you’ll believe
anything. I’m not having a cake ‘cause it would cost too much to decorate with seventeen candles ... anyway, who wants cake when there’s wine to be had?

That's because you have such a youthful, upbeat, and progressive mind and attitude. I know we've never met in person, but I always think of you as being ageless. And I really mean that.
Have a faaaaaabulous seventeenth birthday tomorrow, dear lady.
*raising glass*
CHEERS!
X to you and Joe!
