August 31, Alison Hargreaves birthday

Looking back over the years,
At the laughter & the tears,
A Viking warrior, and a minion,
It was fun, in my opinion!

No longer married, a fresh start,
With your little barn, and your big heart,
You’ll fare well no matter what,
With all the great friends you have got

So happy birthday and god speed,
I hope you have what you need,
To make your birthday lots of fun,
I suggest vodka, and some rum!

August 25, Scott birthday

Happy Birthday dear Scott,
An old man you’re still not,
But you’re on your way there
- How is the grey hair?!

Just kidding my friend,
We’ll stay young till the end,
And with Wendy by your side,
It’ll be a great ride!

So I hope you have a great day,
And have fun, come what may,
With a drop of Whisky & some beer,
Much fine food and good cheer!

August 21, Auntie Anne birthday

If we’re lucky, Soph & I
Maybe next year, you will fly
To Vancouver, out to play
It will be so very gay!

Perhaps we can get Mumsy as well,
That would be really swell!
We’d laugh & joke, and drink lots of wine,
And in our hearts, all would be fine!

So Happy Birthday AA,
What else is there to say?
Have a wonderful day, you’re a fabulous Aunt,
But sadly right now, visit, I can’t

So from over here, on the West Coast,
On your birthday, I’ll raise to you a toast,
To a great day and a wonderful year,
I hope it’s full of lots of good cheer!

August 11, Bella birthday

Oh Bella Bella, my little Cinderella,
Teaching kiddies, who knew? And English too!
Another birthday is here, and someone isn’t near,
Second year in a row, becoming habit, I know.

Maybe soon you’ll indulge me, and to Canada you will come,
Perhaps for a cruise, imagine: You, me and Mum!
Spotting the whales, the icebergs and so,
On an adventure to Alaska, we all could go.

But that’s all in the future, and your special day is now,
I want to celebrate from here, but the question is how?!
Drink a few Martinis, perhaps a bottle of champagne?
Sophie will join me, she’ll never complain!

But as for you, will you hide away?
Or let your sisters make a fuss, on this magical day?
Whatever you do, know this for sure,
I’ll be thinking of you, as the champagne I pour….!

August 6, Angela birthday

Another Birthday, another year,
Another drink, another cheer!
A few glasses of wine,
Good friends and good times!


You deserve all that and more,
Coz you’re great, that’s for sure,
So, much love and best wishes,
And from afar, many kisses!
Mwah!

July 29, Pauline Birthday

Cracking your eggs,
And your whip too,
Keeping Grampy in line
– he’s a handful it’s true!

So many operations
Such a troublesome year,
But you’re always smiling
With a cup of tea and good cheer!

So wishing you a great birthday
And fun times the year through,
For a very special person,
And that person is you!

June 15, Father’s Day card to Dad…

Daddy Dearest, a Happy father’s Day to you,
On this special day, what are you going to do?
Some DIY or gardening? Enjoy a glass of wine?
Perhaps on a cake from Selina you will dine?!

Just 1 more week until your wishes come true,
And I, your favourite daughter, will be there with you
Until then, raise a glass (but save some for me!)
And toast to food times, and your fab family!
