My mother in law celebrated her 100th birthday today and until you celebrate someone’s 100th birthday do you find out how easy or difficult it is to find a suitable card as the ideal is seen as a card with the number on.
So we went for smaller helium balloons rather than huge numbers. A cake that was semi-naked apparently – that was an interesting explanation to overhear. Candles – three digits instead of 100 individual candles.
The best known 100th card comes with a picture of the sender on it and yes she had one of those. Vi used to work at a primary school in Essex where she lived then – today she had a card from the current generation of pupils and it was fantastic.
