?‍♀️??

He makes me laugh, he's naughty too
and sometimes, he's in trouble......?
But Rufus has a way with words and now deserves a double ?

He's reached the age of 94?
Ye Gods, that's pre-historic,
But if he counts in dog years, maybe not too catastrophic!

With ready wit and répartee,
He's going to live forever,
Just keep well, Rufus, and you'll see no end to your endeavours.

Keep safe, be happy, raise a glass
so we can do that too!
Happy Birthday, Rufus, hope we hear much more from you!

Have a very Happy Birthday Rufus2! ??????Whichever you prefer.
No need to evince surprise yesterday. After going over it several times I was just a bit fed up. It all takes forever. I look huge with all sorts of mic equipment stuffed up my jumper. I'll not be selling my lovely ugly beastie.
I hope you had a lovely cake today and the furnace heat generated by the candles didn't upset your neighbours!

94 Today; 94 Today!
I've got the key of the door,
Never been 94 before,
My Carer says I can do as I like
So does my Doctor too
As long as I'm home by half-past two!
For he's a jolly good fellow
etc etc

It's been a long time coming! And long may it continue! grin

*Rafichagran" I'll join you in the "snug" if you don't mind! Whatever that means! Gets mentioned on Midsomer Murders a fair bit.
I've cracked open a bottle of high-grade South East Australian Shiraz ear-marked for today; if there's enough we can toast England's next win. If not, there's an emergency cupboard for further supplies, although come to think of it, pubs don't like patrons bringing their own!
Never mind; any port in a storm; as long as it's drinkable! grin

Aveline Expect you had something similar after your Antique Road show ordeal I assume you managed to express sufficient surprise when they put a value on you!? grin
Or am I. on the wrong tram again!? hmm
You must tell more!

It's now 11.30pm and 3C.
Sydney appears to be in even more strife with more new Covid cases. Schools return next week; interesting times!

Good Health wine wine wine wine
