Chicken Shirl Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 You were all so kind sending your greetings to my mum on her 96th birthday. I hope you like these photo's of our afternoon with her. She sang along to all our favourite carols and tunes from the Sound Of Music. We had cake and scones with jam and cream. The children had a great time playing the piano and running around the garden with my sisters two border collies. xx Click on my photo to see the rest of the slide show. I can never get this to work the same way twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Shirl Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Lovely, lovely photos, belated birthday greetings to your Mum who looks simply amazing for her age. What's her secret She is quite amazing. No idea what the secret is though. She has had a tough life bringing the three of us up during and after the war. She has never smoked or drunk alcohol, my dad grew all our own veggies without the use of pesticides etc: So we always had good food. She always say's that it's because she had a late baby, my sister was born 13 years after me, my mum was 41 when she had her, not late these days I know, but in 1953 it was rare. It has kept her young and interested in life. Or maybe she is just plain nosey She still does the crosswords and reads the news, can still hold her own in a political discussion. We kids are in awe of her, so are the grand children and great grand children. We all love her to pieces. Thank you all for being interested. Have a happy day out there. My DH told me that it's raining in Sussex this morning, hope it cheers up for you and your chooks. My lot have just paid their morning visit to the kitchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henriette Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 A belated birthday to your wonderful Mum! The photos are great and show moments of great happiness. Weather here also horrendous, as in the UK, so I think you must be the lucky one! Thanks again for sharing the super photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Belated birthday greeting from me too She is doing so well for 96, my grandad turned 90 this year and still does all his own cooking and washing and looks after my uncle, but the tide is starting to finally turn the other way a bit now.
