Happy Birthday!

 



It's Jack's birthday.  He has come to visit me as he knows he will get one of his favourite breakfasts (bacon butties) if he comes here.

That might look like some sort of chocolate cake to you, but Jack had said he didn't want a cake.  Instead I made a batch of ducks and put birthday candles in them.  He was quite happy with that.

I also knitted him a new hat so he can proclaim himself to be a supporter of Lincoln City.  And that book he's holding is the history of Lincoln City Football Club.  They are doing rather well this season.

Happy Birthday, Jack.


(He's 83.  I was probably not supposed to tell you that.  Tee hee.)

    1. They are the pork and pork liver "meatballs" I make for Jack. A very traditional Lincolnshire dish.

  6. Happy Birthday Jack. Hope you enjoy your 'ducks' we call them faggots in the West Country. Yes, see Lincoln City FC are second in the league, did wonder which team you supported when the vicar shared the last photo in red and white.

    1. Jack likes his ducks cold in sandwiches or with a salad.
