May Day

Today is May Day. It’s a public holiday in Britain, not so here in Canada but I’m not complaining because we still enjoy more holidays during the course of the year than we used to back there.

May Day is also our wedding anniversary – our 30th this year, so it’s a big milestone.

We don’t do much by way of celebrations these days ... birthdays, anniversaries are all low key ... but it’s still a special day all the same.

Big bouquet of flowers in the living room. A special steak dinner this evening. But meanwhile Ali and Matthew are outside making the most of the sunshine today. They cleaned down the deck this morning and are busy assembling the barbecue she bought last weekend as our anniversary present.

Later on this month we’ll get a weekend away, just the two of us. That’s about as extreme as it gets :)

Happy May Day.

Hi Ian - congratulations to the two of you - here's to many more years ahead. The new bbq sounds good ...

While the weekend away will be fun and peaceful, one hopes! The flower bouquet always enhances a home, while the steak dinner sounds rather good - cheers and all the best to you both (say cheers to Ali for me) - Hilary

Hilary, the steak dinner was fabulous, washed down with a glass or two of good wine.

Alex, it's a big milestone to be sure.

Rick, thanks.
