When I was a kid visiting relatives, I often remember elderly aunts and uncles saying they could never sleep in and would often be out of bed at the crack of dawn.  As a kid this just never made sense to me as I was quite capable of remaining in my pit until well after lunch.

Unfortunately as I turn %$ years of age (it’s rude to ask, so don’t) I find myself following in their footsteps.  Once again even though I am on holiday and it’s my birthday, I am wide awake, out of bed and sitting having my morning coffee at 6.30am, while my better half remains in the land of the lost.

The consolation prize for not having coffee and cornflakes in bed this birthday morning though (I could never wait that long!), is that we are off to Betty’s Cafe Restaurant in York where we will take breakfast in opulent splendour.

Have a good day yourselves and if we are out should you come by,  just leave the gifts under the porch :-)

    Happy Birthday Mike – have a good ‘un. Do you think the fact that it’s your birthday may will remind your better half of another fast approaching day of celebration ? Doubt it. It doesn’t usually.

    Enjoy the breakfast.
