Last night friends who both have birthday in this octave came round for dinner (the menu for the evening, for those who may be intrested can be found here). They are also both priests, and another of the guests had made an altar birthday cake for them, complete with jewelled chalice and paten, and lacy linen made out of icing!
Here they are blowing out the high six candles on the altar/cake. Of course neither of them are six, but they acted like it when they wanted to set off loud fireworks at past midnight and I said they couldn’t!
