Day 464: I Am Having The Best Birthday Ever!!!!

Yes I am 38 it is brilliant. I got a red bicycle from a veterinary research pathologist, and it goes zoom zoom up and down roads with loads of gears brilliant. Also I got scrambled eggs and crumpets (just like the ones in England except with weird Gaelic type on them, suggesting that crumpets are Irish, which I do not think they are), for breakfast.

Then I got some thermal underwear (not like that!!!) and some proper Canadian socks. Also there were books and a packet of Bendicks Bittermints in the post and other things, and emails and pictures. I could not breathe earlier; it was all too much.

And then I received a mysterious electronic mail (from the person who sent me the Bittermints), entitled The best birthday present a woman could receive.

Here is what it said:

"Ye gods.... James Blunt singing about a triangle on Sesame Street to the tune of "You're Beautiful". From me to you, with love. x

Here it is. It is really good.



If you are feeling sick, watch this now. It will help you feel better. You have probably seen it before but I am put in mind of it because I was alerted to the existence of these people by the same person who sent me James Blunt, the triangle and the Bendicks Bittermints. It is The Flight of the Conchords.

See it as a present from me, to you, on the occasion of my birthday. Then we can all celebrate together!
