October 2022 Things

We are clearly moving into autumn weather. It`s colder but we still need more rain. On Friday I met Heike and we went to Birgit`s grave. She would have been 70 on that day. We took flowers and were joined by her son, Robert. We sat and chatted for some time and that was nice. In a couple of hours I shall join my Ko-Gang and go to the Philharmonie to enjoy a concert. A nice way to enjoy the start of the month!

Who has a birthday in October? My nephew Andrew starts us off with his 45th and is sure to celebrate with his family in Silsden. Another nephew called Warren will celebrate his 46th birthday on the 12th with his big brother and family. His mother, my sister Frances will be 76 on the 14th. Back in Berlin, Falk will celebrate his birthday on the 15th. Also in Berlin, little Benedict will be 1 year old on the 18th – what a little treasure he is! My neighbour Marita will be 72 on the 21st and we are sure to have a glass of sekt to celebrate. Back to Keighley on the 27th to see Dianne Bolton celebrating her 76th. Moving down to London we find Tanja Bridge celebrating her 58th on the 31st and so ends the birthday month. Happy Birthday to each and all no matter where you are!
