C'mon the Ospreys!


It was Tina's birthday yesterday. She came round and we had a birthday tea with jelly and Krispy Cakes and sausages on sticks. My jelly rabbit was variously described as resembling a human organ or roadkill but I notice it didn't stop anyone eating it.

Our youth cafe is open again this week (half-term) as a community cafe. I've been in to help today and until we had a lunchtime rush - of four people - our only customer was the local tramp who doesn't pay. He enjoyed his cup of tea and date flapjack though.

Now I must try not to make myself sick on leftover party food. Two bowls of trifle for lunch isn't excessive, is it?

Tonight Younger Son and I are off to see the Swansea-Neath Ospreys take on the might of Australia. As there's a rugby international on Saturday the Ospreys won't be playing their top players but I had hoped that Justin Marshall, their scrum half who hails from New Zealand, would be playing - he is worth watching and not just for his rugby skills - but I'm told he's injured. I am most disappointed.

Looks like a group who are enjoying themselves. You have left over party food, I have left over Halloween candy.

What do German children say instead of trick or treat?

They say suss or sauer, sweet or sour. One year a few showed up and just said Halloween. Didn't have many last night compared to last year.

Surely this will seem like a stupid question to you, but who is Tina? And happy birthday to her!!!

Tina's my friend, the lady in red at the back of the group. She's been through a diffciult time recently so it was good to see her enjoying herself.
