Birthday greetings for Jo

A friend of mine wished to pen your birthday greetings, Josephine, and she would have clobbered me with her purse if I didn’t let her, so here you go:

Dwarling! Minx Whatmore here, wishing you a simpleh smashing day. Hope you are feeling fabulous today because it is All About You dwarling. If not – just remember that a feather boa will improve *any* not so fabulous day!

Ciao dwarling, kiss kiss!

From me: happy birthday doll, I love getting to see you when I am up home twice a year, and I can’t wait to have another five hour chat with you in December.

Side note: Jo is a dear friend of mine from high school – we met early on, when I was in year 7 and she was in year 8. I think our shared penchant for silliness, and lack of patience for bullshit have been what has kept us friends over time – I can’t remember ever having fought with Jo.

I can be away for a year and, when I walk into Jo’s place, the conversation picks up like I left the room five minutes ago. I think that level of comfort with a friend is rare and I feel lucky to have it. Miss you dwarling.
