Thank you all so much for remembering, especially DTC - that cake is amazing, apart from a slightly 'pugilistic nose'!
Happy Birthday to your Nan, NoM!
Arky, I rejoined AB when Psybbo passed away, but had to change my name, as you can see. Some still call me Sir A, some are now calling me Gen - the list goes on!
Thanks for the 'tiny-pic' Mamya, it's very colourful and sweet - just like me - hahaha!
Left the house at 10am and have only just got back - Rufus loves a long walk, now he's lost a bit of weight!
Have kept my shoes on though, as this is one of the only 'dry' days we're going to have for a while and I want to go and pick sloes, so I'll return, no doubt, covered in scratches. I can't miss the opportunity, as the bushes are heaving with them this year and it's difficult and expensive to buy damsons.
Tremendous thanks once again, to one and all - better than last year when I was laid up with bronchitis and didn't see or speak to anyone all day - boo hoo!
