Re: special days in August
it is my lovely friend Dee's birthday today. I have known her since i was 7 years old--we lost touch and she got back in touch via Friends Reunited, and we have met up quite a few times. Ever since Dee was a tiny girl,even before I kew her, she loved dancing, and she went to ballroom dancing lessons--I remember her mum staying up and making all the lovely net and glitter dresses for her, and she has danced all her life--in competitions and for pleasure. however, she has recently been having pains in one of her knees, and having all sorts of tests---she has to go back to hospital this week, as they think she may have cancer in that knee. We are all prayting that it is not cancer.

My birthday was very quiet as most of my friends & family are on holiday, I decided I was NOT going to cook on MY birthday so I bought a Fuller Longer meal in M&S opened a bottle of red and had Haagen Dazs ice cream for dessert.
I did go into town forgetting the festival was on and the city was heaving so I came home again.
