Happy birthday dad. You packed out the pub room that got booked. Met alot of your friends from days gone by and more recent met and had a good chinwag. Your friend Bert Jewell was there and didn't realise he had to judge your gardening a few times. Superstar Sarah arranged it but I tried to look after her. You said she's always had a heart of gold. She collects wooden ducks for memorable occasions. Got her one with angel wings and after a last minute rush found a golden coloured heart earing and glued it on the ducks chest. She looked after you immensely and I'll do the same for her. Rest up. Got told earlier you were on par with Ken Dodd, if not better with how quickly you read the room and made people laugh. You never stopped working or grafting but now it's time for you to put your feet up and have a rest dad 👍
