    Default A Special Occasion, or two, or three!

    There are three special occasions, in the UK on 19th May 2018.

    1. My Birthday.
    2. The FA Cup Final.
    3. The Royal Wedding.

    I think it's very disrespectful of the other two, to hijack my special day.
    After all, I've had mine for many, many years. Long before they decided to use that particular day.

    Don't you think that the other two should have, at the very least, invited me?!

    I do not think it would be unreasonable to ask them to change the date of the wedding. Or for that matter the FA Cup Final. But this is me on the other side of the pond. What do I know about anything.

    Anyway, if you're fishing, Happy Birthday.

    No, Gary.
    I wouldn't put up a birthday card, for my own birthday!

    It's just that when I heard the other two events were on my Birthday, that gave me a reason to do a drawing.
    And try and make it mildly funny!

    That's just not good enough Rik. I've contacted the Lord Chamberlain and he was unaware it was your Birthday, so here you go:

    Well, you probably think you were doing something great, having sorted my invite!

    All you've achieved is to get me into deep trouble.
    Lynn wants to know where her invite is?
    She will not let me go, if she can't go.
    What am I going to do?!

    PS. That's a great invite.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    No, no and thrice NO!
    The one thing Lynn hates the most is being referred to as Ms.

    Many thanks for the Happy Birthday wishes, Larry.
