Tuesdays Story of the Day

Tuesday was Glennis Elletts significant birthday (Pension Day).  Her team set off for the Badminton Awards Dinner with an unknowing Glennis oblivious that travelling in cognito in the boot of the taxi was a birthday cake.  Team arrived at dinner, taxi and said cake departed.  Cake had tour of Sydney where after many phone calls, many dollars, many worried team members, and many hours later, said cake reappeared at dinner where Glennis was presented with this, a song was sung, and all was well.  Glennis was very impressed, team was very poor!!
