Granddad is 75


My dad's birthday was actually on 20th December but my parents arrived from Italy late at night so we could not celebrate. And next day he was ill so we had to postpone until yesterday when he felt better. My dad is a special person and the only man in the world I really trust 100%. He had some tough time in his life and we almost lost him four years ago when he had a massive heart attack. But he is a tough fighter and he keeps on going on with his pacemaker, always helping people and cheering us up with his jokes and good words.


Here is my dad with his proud grandchildren ….and his delicious cake made by my friend Lesley….


And here is grandma as well.

We had a little party with just the six of us but we had a serene and happy time together. It is so nice to be all together again! It is really like Christmas :))))
