Celebrating a significant birthday under lock-down
Balloons from the newsagency.
Rich chocolate cake from the village grocery store.
All his gifts were purchased in Blackheath. Warm, cosy slippers from the newsagency (well he is seventy)
A BLACKHEATH BIRTHDAY
That sounds like a lovely day. Congratulations and best wishes to Rob. My advice about the beautiful blue wren crockery (which I also have) is to use it! Often.
Thanks so much Paul. Yes, we already had two blue wren plates which we use at lunch every day.
Hi. I must put a photo of a family trinket up and you can all try and guess what it it. I am a red over blue fan as they are colors of the Royal Regiment of Australian Artillery in which I served for eight years. Good to hear the birthday was as good as could be.

Please do put up a quiz object Max, that would be great. And thanks for your service. Rob said it was fantastic birthday, so that was lovely to hear.
My sincere apologies to Dr Bob. I seem to have overlooked this post, and hence such an auspicious occasion. Love the stamps. Immortalised for ever. Happy belated birthday greetings Rob.
The stamps were a big hit. He just couldn’t work out how it could possibly be! Haha.
