I have made it an annual resolution to ensure that I am never working on my birthday and once again have the whole week booked off to enjoy myself. That was of course before we encountered this pandemic Covid-19 so now what to do with all that time? Well today (Thursday 30th April) I would have paid an overdue visit to the crematorium and spend some time having a 'chat' with Mum and Dad, but sadly as it stands we cannot even do this. I appreciate this is important and something no one has really experienced on this scale but the amount of time spent at home and working remotely is very difficult especially on the mental heath aspect of things. So as I'll not be going anywhere this time I have cancelled the week off that was arranged and will have to work it instead. The plan will be to take a week off later in the year (hopefully) and do something special then, meeting my Brother Graham and other members of the family and all the friends that I miss too. 
In the meantime we'll just have a quiet one safe at home, probably open a bottle of something nice and raise a glass to wish you all a lovely day too.
Happy Birthday to me.
