(Or Doday, in Dotty speak). She was very pleased with a little Snow White dolly, and even more pleased with her great big cake. As birthdays go, it was pretty bare bones due to the severe lack of folding monetary units available, but once we get some insurance money through we’ll find some “fogotten presents”.
