I celebrated my final sixtieth birthday party in the bosom of my siblings on Saturday.
I am now so broken down by age and alcohol that I can no longer remember if this is the sixth or seventh celebration of same.

Thanks to all my brothers and sisters for attending, it was a real treat to have all seven of us at the one table together, reminded me of Tree Tops!
Special thanks to M. Fifi Lauhoff for the catering, especially for the Meringues and the Brandy Snaps, and to Val for the cake and to D, George, Val, Fifi David, and Teddy for being yourselves.

(and to Milo, Esme,Demmy,Jim, Mary and Mary (and indeed Sile) for keeping us that way)
Ted and Mary gave me this extremely appropiate card.
