Historically Speaking, The Greatest Day In My Life.

Okay, it was a bit of an anti-climax at midnight in Spain but we sat up on the roof of our house, imbibing bubbly and watching the stars.
There was Orion in all its glory, a gibbous moon, both Mars and Venus were present in a perfectly clear sky. 
Library picture. Our sky was perfect!
The moment came upon us - in the matter of a second, we transferred from being in the Evil Empire to not being. All the joy had been spread over past weeks and there was little left to cheer but a deep contentment came upon me.
We had lived long enough to see the glorious day.
Before midnight I had turned on ITV, only to find the wretched Gina Miller being given air time. I turned it off, angry that the losers are still being given prominence in their continuing, wicked attempts to overturn a legitimate, democratic decision.

Birdie.
