I will remind you of the headlines from just a few weeks ago 'One in Five Births in England are to Foreign Mothers'.

A belated happy birthday to you! I'd been thinking of it ever since you left that comment on my blog and kept checking back to make sure I'd remember the day, and now here I am late anyway. :-P

Oh well, I hope it was a good one.
