Rafikis,
The return of Friday Afternoon?
Nope. Not just yet.
Just a broadcast announcement that since we last spoke, I am now a real true and verifiable 100% authentic aunty. The little chap, a 6 pounder, no ketchup and cheese thanks, born on Tuesday morning in the mystical, magical dawn light. Truly my bestest best best best week in a very very long time.
Now that I am an auntie, true and verifiable, I have been advised (by some imposters who call themselves rafikis) to (1) drink a copious quantity of wine, (2) grow my hair and put it in a bun, and (3) buy a patent leather handbag with long straps so I can strap in the crook of my arm and crabbily swing it out at people I don't like.
(1) has been done already. (2) and (3) all in good time, but will also very much depend on what additional attractive suggestions may arrive in my in-box.
In pure delight and amazement.
Auntieeeeeeee!
