Happy Birthday to Quent

Yesterday was Quent's birthday (47) - and tomorrow is Oakley's (3). We had a pyjama party for Oakley - and 20+ little friends - on Saturday which was great fun, although rather tiring! After the party Oakley went off for a sleepover so that we had Quent's birthday to ourselves. This year, instead of organising loads to do, I organised to do nothing! A long lie in, Sunday papers, watching a film under the duvet etc. All the things that are hard with a 3 yr old. It was great.

Quent and Helen did his Desert Island Discs this weekend, too. I haven't heard it all yet, but what I have heard sounds great. Thanks for your help - they both really enjoyed doing it.

We did go out for a lovely meal on Friday for Quent's birthday and got onto planning a few things we might want to do. They ranged from buying a camper van to sailing round the Caribbean. Quent is keen to get Oakley onto skis so that's the first thing to organise, after Quent's next hospital appointment mid February.

Happy birthday to both of the birthday boys. I spent the weekend stripping and rebuilding a Yamaha 535 and it reminded me of the day you arrived in Leatherhead way late on yours and had to tell us about someone crashing your car. If I could remember everything you said it might cost you a wonderfull wife.

Sorry a little late with the birthday wishes but I hadn't forgotten as you are never far from my thoughts. Went to the Half Way House Saturday evening as Eamonn's band were playing it was a great night we all got "right on it" so to speak, very hung over yesterday though which is no fun with two nagging girls!!

lots of love Janice Paul H & H xxxx

Whaaaaat? You are kidding me. 47? No way Jose. Or Quent. How can you possibly be 47 and so youthful? Jeez, I used to like you as well.

Duvets, films and cuddles are some of the best things in life. I am now getting bed sores though, since I no longer need to venture out in the dark for new prey...

Wishing Oakley a jolly happy one tomorrow and love to all.

You want to be careful with Quent and sailing boats in South America. Didn't he want to sink the last one you guys went on...?

Happy birthday to both of your kids Helen!

Belated Happy Birthday to Oakley and Quent. Quent, you don't look a day over 46. You must let me know which moisturizer you use!

All the best,

Martyn
