Aunty Connie's Birthday - 30 January 2009

Aunty Connie's birthday was on a Friday.. a work day.. Fortunately, I'd managed to get off work slightly earlier and a train arrived almost immediately. So, I made it over for dinner in good time. Dinner was a simple affair.. the birthday girl cooked dinner but I reckon she's happy doing it and having a quiet li'l do..


Aunty Connie unwrapping the gift that I got her.. and true to the festive season, it was RED!


Nigel gives the thumbs up to his 'special' dinner.. Hey, I'd give the thumbs up too.. I loved this meal as a kid.. I still do!


The rest of us had chicky chop with mushroom sauce, baked potatoes and steamed greens..
and for dessert it was chocolate & coffee birthday cake..

Aunty Connie puts on her new baju.. The usual group pix..
I must say our threats of ".. pix of a shirtless you is gonna end up on the blog for all to see.."
seemed to have gotten James to keep his shirt on! Haha..

Aunty Connie makes her wish.. and blows out the candles..

It was cake all around after that. I was pretty tired and left shortly after..

HAPPY 73RD BIRTHDAY, AUNTY CONNIE!
