Six birthdays in one week

My husband has exactly three family members (close ones, anyway), and all of them have birthdays in early November. As does our mate Craig, as do I, and as does my Grandad.

No, I'm not that old.

That's six birthdays all within one week, and I have a feeling my bank balance will have something to say about that. Last few months, I don't know where all the money's going. I think everything's just more expensive and it's taking its toll. If it weren't for my bits of theatre work here and there, we'd have gone under. I don't even want to think about that awful thing that happens at the end of December. Let's celebrate "managing to scrape by".
