Happy Birthday to Darren, Happy . .. yeah, yeah.

Yesterday was my lovely husband's 3coughth birthday.  The cough is his own business but it rhymes with gate.  Kinda broke at the moment, saving for holiday, paying for car tax, no jobs etc. etc. so this years big present was put on hold.  Actually, probably could have swung it if he had've told me what he would like. Either way, check out the photos.  We had a surprise tea party for him from when he came home from golfng with his mate Dave.  Someone was smiling on us (she always is when I need good weather) and we had the best day of the year for the longest day of the year, also the day of D's birthday.  He had spicey paprica chicken, fried chorizo (it is so much nicer to blacken in a pan and then eat it PLUS if you keep the oil and mix it with white wine vinegar or chinese rice wine you can make a fab salad dressing), garlic butter sweet corn and the best cake ever.  Made by Harry.  Will post recipe ever.  Arthur told his dad he didn't look much older than Yoda.  Oscar told him he loved him and Harry made the cake.  Couldn't fit 38 candles on the cake so we got the ones that keep relighting so he had to blow them out enough times to add up to 38!!
