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
J & A Enterprises.
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 –Â just play!
And I didn’t once mention the poo…
Oops!

Ha ha ha ha ha – what a wonderful birthday gift. No-one, to my knowledge, has ever written a poem about me and I am highly delighted, albeit rather embarrassed at some of the photos! Did you get your eye tests yet? Love Jo José Kirby Estate Office, Arthingworth, Market Harborough, Leics, LE16 8JT 01858 525431 Office 07801880908 Mob 01858 525535 Fax

I don’t believe that none of those likely chaps didn’t write you a love poem or two…..
I happen to think that, with one possible exception, the photos are charming. We were beautiful – a shame we didn’t realise it then. And just look at those smiles…!!
