Freeloading Phill and ...

A Handy Eighty

This weekend past was the occasion of the celebrating of Handy Dad passing his 80 year milestone.

A grand gathering of friends and family was had for a lunchtime feast and so Salsa Girl, Hulk, and Oneself dutifully set forth to dutifully stuff ourselves to the gills with entree, main and dessert (twice for Hulk who may not have fallen far from the tree).

For the ceremonial side of things Freeloading Mum insisted that one earn ones fill and say a few words over the raucous sounds of the lively bistro crowd. Being the reluctant public speaker you all know me to be I respectfully spouted some truths about dad to enlighten everyone to the changes he would be undergoing at his significant age - I believe that I have managed to keep my favourite son status intact despite his shock at the new requirements for beer intake.

When it was all done we headed home from the event to all partake in a celebratory nap in honour of the birthday boys favoured afternoon hobby.
