Here she is, the birthday girl – 58 – no never!
She’s clever and funny
Pretty and sunny
And we’ve been friends forever
Growing up in Higham Ferrers – our stomping ground was Rushden
Mates through school
The queens of cool
Excepting when it came to men
Yeah, we got that wrong from time to time but never fought about it
We loved and lost
Sometimes at cost
Supporting each other when all went to shit
We travelled together all over the place – we sure had some surprises
Sometimes near – sometimes far
Southwold, Jersey, Canada
Such times we had back in the day – some breakfast or dinner out eh?
We never lost touch
Lord no, not as such
Still best of buddies to this day
I’m posting these pics – I’m so bloody mean
We may look daft
But bugger we laughed
All great fun – good and clean
This one’s for you pal – so forget all those cares
I hope that my rhyming
For once makes good timing
With apologies to Pam Ayres
So now I sing ‘Happy Birthday to You’
Have a great day
Don’t work – just play!
