The BBC's 60th Birthday


It was Barry BC's 60th birthday just after we got back from holiday in Italy. We went to Barry's house in "Brasingsteak" and met up with Chris and Mandy who we hadn't seen for ages (about 17 years) as well as Andy, Rena and their son Victor. The Chris and Mandy, Barry, Andy and Rena, Janet and I were all together in Oman. Lesley was also there; she was in Oman too but after we left. We were all shocked to find how long had passed since we left Oman and how little, apart from a few extra pounds grey hair and wrinkles, we had all changed.

It must have been baffling for the other guests and for Bethany (Chris and Mandy’s daughter) and Victor to listen to us reminisce. I took along a carrier bag full of photos from Oman and they invoked many good memories. I must get around to scanning them in to my computer and putting them on the internet too.
