My 75th birthday today. As it coincided with the Tuesday Geriatrics I did my usual walk round the golf course and bought a kummel or glass of port for those who wanted it.
‘The girls’, at the club, were extremely kind and produced a wedge of chocolate cake with a single candle and a large fluffy singing dog with long floppy ears which flapped amusingly in time to the music.  I have no idea how they knew, in the advance, that it was my birthday — I was very touched.
Son Miles kindly came down this evening to joined us for supper which rounded off a very happy day.
