UNIQUE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS
Praise went out for a group in the area who wished and sang happy birthday to children whose birthday was this weekend in a drive by style, birthday gram dressed in costumes, sounding horns and singing a surprise birthday greeting for delighted children who stood in their driveways. Well done to all involved for creating a novel way of celebrating a special day adhering to recent restrictions.
