About 45 years ago. The girl in the hand-knitted cardigan with the brass buttons, on a beach, in Wales.
And today she wears badges saying 50 and Fantastic and Looking Good, eats chocolate cake baked by her wife, and enjoys a large vase of wonderful autumnal flowers. The cake candles are now stuck around the head of yesterday's carved pumpkin, a little melted but still spelling out HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
She is grateful.
She says yes.

Yes. Warmest wishes for many good things in this new year and decade.
Happy happy happy! A picture of me 45 years ago would be one of my mother with a huge belly. Which means I have five years to look forward to wearing your badge.
Happy birthday! I wish I were still 50...
She was also a lovely-looking five-year-old :)
Good to have you all along as I begin the second half of the century :-0
