Today I turn 56 years young. Ah what a glorious life! Who would have thought when I was born I’d spend this birthday in South Africa. Surely not my parents. But then I must have inherited some gypsy blood from somewhere. And this is only the beginning. The world is both big and small and I want to experience so much of it.
