Birthday!


Eighty one today!
The chimp is Charlie...he used to sit on the right hand seat in Pirate's left hand drive campervan....
We had planned a bike ride today...but it has been raining and showering all day, so we made do with a walk in light rain.

Now I have a chocolate cake to make!

Pirate looks like a dashing Capt.Kirk there, in his gold shirt!
Best wishes to him (and you) for a fantastic new year---
biking, gardening, travels, friends, love (you!)---he should be well set up!!!

Many happy returns, Pirate. I hope it's a good chocolate cake.

My gosh, I would never have thought Pirate was that old. Still, on The New Dharma Bums blog today she has a video of Gordon Lightfoot performing on Canada Day recently and HE is 81, too. Happy birthday, Pirate.

Happy birthday, Pirate. Those campervans were pretty nice. I had a left hand drive one myself.

Happy Birthday!

I used to have a 'Jacko the Monkey' just like that one!

Not being the sharpest tool in the box is Charlie eighty one or pirate? Happy birthday to both anyway! Tell me chocolate doesn’t have the same effect on chimps as it does dogs? If so, pirate had better man up and scoff the lot!

Charlie is a mere 50 years old. He got a new suit 16 years ago.

Looks like the Pirate had a very happy day! Love the chimp, and seeing your prints hanging behind them in the photo.
