Happy Birthday to the missus! Happy Birthday to yoooooo!

It's Jo's birthday today. Her tumty-tumth. What? Like I'd ever be so ungentlemanly as to reveal a lady's age! Although I must confess I do take a quiet satisfaction in knowing (and occasionally reminding my beloved) that she's three short - but quite definite - weeks older than me... ;)

Anyhow, we're off out tonight for a food-based celebration of the event, and tomorrow night for a movie-based follow-up, so do excuse me if I don't get a chance to blog much again until the weekend...

And do feel free to join me in a rousing chorus:

"Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday..!"

The Altered Images version, obviously...
