I saw some pics in the Daily Sun yesterday of the Royal Ascot race in Ascot but did not see you and your fair lady. Were you not in attendance???

Hi Your Worship -- Thank you for your good wishes.
We didn't want our Gillyland friends and neighbours to start spending loads and loads of money buying me birthday presents so we didn't announce it before the day.
As for Royal Ascot, we have a long standing agreement with Her Majesty for us not to attend because I don't like wearing top hats and Her Ladyship doesn't like wearing hats either (it spoils her hairdo)
Hope the Gilybration went well, we raised a glass at midnight (12pm), when we got in from the evening out for the birthday meal, then flacked out.
