Starting the blog with a photo of my faithful companion of 68 years, my much loved Teddy.

| Eileen (aged 2) and Teddy |
We are both delighted to be celebrating another birthday. As you can see he is wearing well for his years, meanwhile I have reached the grand old age of 70! and whether I am wearing well or not is irrelevant, as I feel no different to when I was 69... when Andy and I enjoyed a family dinner with Natalie and Kenneth.
However the recent changing circumstances have allowed us to have a larger family gathering this year. So we celebrated the occasion with nine of us dining out at a local restaurant. There I am sitting betwixt my two sisters in law, Chrissie and Alison, smiling at the Vesuvius of candles. Obviously 70 candles couldn't fit on the muffin!

Previously, when asked what I wanted for my birthday, I responded with "scallops" and scallops is what I got...

| Mmmmmmm. |
The G and T went down a treat too. Just in case you thought I was drinking water!

No birthday is complete without a glass of pink Prosecco. Well, if I can't get to Italy for my birthday ... the least I can do is bring a taste of Italy to Largs...
