BIRTHDAY BEAR TRADITION

I have 9 old, wrinkly friends, who are retired or semi-retired. Five of them all used to work together and the other four are husbands. They didn't want to lose touch when they retired so they decided to meet and have lunch or dinner when it was their birthdays. However, they got disenchanted with buying a present every time, and decided instead to give a Birthday Bear (thats me.) I get passed from one birthday person to the next each time they meet. The fun part is, that I get to be dressed differently each time, usually to reflect some aspect of the recipient's personality or life.
PS: Two of my wrinklies, Chris and Bob, have gone on a working holiday tour around Australia so they don't celebrate with us very often.

I'M OFF TO FIJI

My wrinkly friends and I went to Sunnybank Sports Club to celebrate. Diane dressed me in traditional Fijian clothes and I was ready to go to Fiji with Helen and the others  to listen to the music festival that was on there.

 I'm ready with my guitar.

Helen invited her DIL to join the wrinklier because she is going to Fiji too.

 Helen is happy for me to play some country songs for her.

 Diane and Helen have been friends for ages.

 The fish was delicious
