Happy Birthday to you... I went to the zoo.... I saw a fat monkey... and it looked just like you! Not that you'd know, having been attacked by a shark on your swim to monkey island, eh?! Hope you're having a really wicked day and celebrating it in style (cocktails and UB40?) and having a bit of sun on your birthday - a bit unusual! I hope your b-day pressie has come in useful...! Lots of love, Luce and Willy xxxxxxxxx
