[Sundae]

I travelled down the country on Friday, to be with Dads on his 75th birthday.
Family things being what they are, we are having two separate celebrations. It's not so much about the whole my-sister-has-disowned-me blahblahblah, and more about the fact Mum offered a choice about which of the two weekend days everyone was free. The Wrights wanted Saturday, Ste wanted Sunday, so guess who I sided with?

Yup. Going to have Italian with the 'rents and my bro today. Looking as Sophia Loren as a fat middle aged woman with wild lilac hair can manage.

Dads loved the boot-sale cat. He doesn't know where it came from (Mum does but she loves it too).
They've called it Queenie.
The inflatable crown was from me. He wore it out for the meal yesterday and it was a hit.

Mad old Dad. I feel like Cordelia.
