Monika Have A Great Day

80 today ............... oh dear,never mind as they say; it's better than the alternative!

Thank you for your good wishes, dita.

Not doing anything today, but have had three lots of visitors bearing gifts, and my sister came yesterday. Tomorrow, I am treating 15 of us to a meal at the Nottingham Greyhound Stadium, which I'm looking forward to and keeping my fingers crossed that the awful weather forecast is way off mark. Cross yours for me?

Many, many happy returns, Monika. Have a lovely time tomorrow and never mind the weather - you'll all be feeling warm and sunny as you gather for your celebration. Bon appetit!

Thanks very much, Andere. I'm really looking forward to it.

I did the same thing for my 70th birthday and it's great fun.
