We had such a wonderful day yesterday. By the time my sister, youngest daughter and I arrived before lunch Dad had already had a succession of visitors including Scarlett who had been so excited and people dropping off cards, flowers and cakes. All his neighbours and even dog walkers who just know him from walking by the house and put cards through. After we had lunch together we went down to local garden centre and he chose lots of plants for the garden from us all. When we got back we had tea and birthday cake and youngest daughter played old music like Nat King Cole and Glenn Miller and Dad told her tales of how he used to play the trumpet as he loved the Glen Miller Orchestra so much. He even had lessons and was quite good. I had completely forgotten that and we all decided they don't make good music like that anymore!
