MY SON'S BIRTHDAY

My second son is 23 today, so congratulations to him.

He had invited the family round for a barbecue at his new penthouse flat in Odense. I went round earlier, watched the mountain stage of the Tour de France with him on his TV, had a nap during one of the downhill sections, and then enjoyed beer and nice food thereafter when the others turned up.

It's good when children grow up and can do things for their parents!
