Our Phili-Pam

Belated anniversary wishes Philip and Pam. It sounds as though you had a lovely day. Love to you both, Tricia x

Hi, and thank you too, Tricia, Another bit of good news for Pam and I is that my brother-in-law is being discharged from the George Eliot today. He is not out of the woods, but at least more at home.

Very good news.

Hi all Anyone reading our forum posts might be tempted to think that I always eat out. It may surprise you to know that as well as my Pam's culinary delights, my culinary delights are very extensive. I am a dab-hand with our toaster, I must insist. Mondays (today) are more often than not my chore housework day and so it is now. I am waiting for a delivery this morning too, but my hard graft is now rewarded by a round of toast and marmalade, coffee, and sunshine streaming down where I am sitting outside. Sometimes, the simple things in life (they do not come much more simple than me) are just spot on. Anyway, must press on, it's a hard life, this retirement thing.

I was not born to fish, but you might have a laugh at this photo of me in Mevagissey when I was about nine.

Hi Philip. Mevagissey brings back memories for me. You are so fortunate to have photos at that age, nobody seemed to have a camera in those days. They look like a brace of mackerel you have there, I bet it wasn't long before they were sizzling away in the pan

Hi all My Pam goes to the "end of the world" to cheer me up at times when she knows that I am sad. The proof is often in her home baking. Too hot to touch, fresh out of the oven, sausage rolls and Coventry God cakes. Roll on tea time.

Hi Philip, I'm so sorry you are sad today ...hope Pam's baking cheered you up.

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Philip, happy birthday to you. Hope you have a great day, Philip. xx

Happy Birthday from me too Philip, may you have many more to come. Hope Pam bakes a wonderful cake for you, you can put as many candles on to what age you feel and I know that won't be that many. Have a great day.

You both beat me to it! Yes!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHILIP!! 40 again?

Happy birthday Philip, another April fool. It is our daughter's birthday today as well but she is older than you, she is 41 Enjoy your day

Hi all & thank you, It's turning out to be quite nice, with the drift of baking smells coming from the kitchen. I like the older than me bit, Annewiggy!

Looks as though Pam is going to spoil you again Phil. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, have a fantastic day. x
