My owner Gail is notoriously poor at celebrating birthdays so I am delighted to report she has actually remembered that today I reach the age of one year old.
Since I share my birthday with one very distinguished Scot, Robert Burns, our national bard, I am promised this evening my own specially tailored Burns Supper, with the traditional plate of haggis, neeps and tatties, accompanied by Gail reciting (badly) my favourite Burns poem, 'The Twa Dogs' of course. My generous offer to bark an 'Address to the Lassies' had been politely declined.
I hope that today's other distinguished birthday boy, Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, will find time to take a break from his heroic endeavours and have a quiet celebration with his family. I, Nobby, am proud to share my birthday with such a fine individual, and Gail and I send best wishes to him and all his fellow countrymen and women, and also our hopes for future peace and prosperity in an independent Ukraine.
we wish you a super happy birthday dear nobby... it's also the birthday of virginia woolf ;O)

ReplyDeleteHAPPY BARKDAY, NOBBY!!! Sorry, I's a little late to your pawty post... I got a bit crazy cos the sun was shining over the Hutch this morning and it warranted an outing around the streets - you know how rare that is for me!!! That's changing now, of course. Sigh. I am relieved to learn you will be getting the traditional supper for your birthday tea... and I join you in those greetings to Mr Z, who is surely feeling the weight of every single year just now.
Off into your second year then, Nobby dear - may it bring adventure, fun and lots of happy days. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
