Extended Birthday Celebrations
Because I am special (special in what way you can decide & keep to yourselves thankyou!) I, like the Queen had a real birthday and an official one this year. My middle sister Sharon collected me around 10.30am and we headed to Shoeburyness to where my youngest sister Diane lives.
