It’s my husband Will’s birthday today, “Happy birthday darling!” We celebrated last night as today I have a lunch with all my old Midday crew, meaning author Caroline Grace-Cassidy, singer Mary Coughlan and Elaine Crowley of course. At this time of year, we’re all going to be in ‘party, party, party’ mode for the next few weeks, so our make-up and livers both need to be up to the challenge.
