    My kids called me today to sing me happy birthday, there was a big group with cousins and aunties but my kids had gone to do the weekly groceries and bought me a cake.

    They're clever I didn't know you could take a two way picture but they managed to do it on their phones.

    I'll break my personal rule of not posting pictures that include me this one time.

    Wish I could have broken my carb fast to have some of the cake it looks lovely :D I am breaking my alcohol fast through today :D

    My hair's a mess because I cut it myself, not been to a barber for 2 years last haircut was in Las Pinas and that's where my next proper cut will be too the guy that cuts my hair there is really good.

    I've never had a birthday celebration in the Phils I wanted to be there now for this one but sadly not to be because of the quarantine restrictions.

    :D

    Saves a load of money, it's a tenner a haircut here now, in Las Pinas my barber does my hair for less than £1 about 50 peso but I always give him 250 peso.

    That's a great smile on the wee lad!

    Sometimes photos can be funny.
    My kids use snapchat and the effects can be hilarious:

    Thanks, I don't really care about my birthday's anymore but it was nice what my kids did this time and 63 is the age at which I qualify for my first very small pension so I did have a small celebration this time :)

    Not got the pension though yet as my old employer changed pension managers right when I should have received my documents explaining my options.
