HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With the liver recouperation in mind - suggestion: anyone who's out there - DON'T buy him a drink to celebrate...just give him a HUG and an extra big one from mummy. - thought: has this been your best year, Pete?

See your mum on a blog
Hi Peter, Tamsin has left on her travels and I have set up a blog to keep her up to date with things back here. Your mum appears on one of them so you might like to take a look. http://www.travelblog.org/Bloggers/Cake-Maker/ Glad you continue to have fun. Will you be in Sydney at New Year. Look Tamsin up. Your mum has a new laptop and has fallen in love with it. All the best Iris
