Dad came over for his birthday last night and Col, Shan, Hanna, Sophie and I celebrated with a roast pork and crackling (his fav). Blake is uncontactable at the moment (his phone is lost in his bedroom!!!).

After eating tea we suddenly remembered the eclipse and raced outside, just in time to see the total eclipse in a clear sky (with stars shining). What a fluke!

There was much hilarity and the usual flow of stories.  Sophie took the pics so unfortunately missed out on the photo collage. I am sure she is devastated (not!).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!
