Happy Birthday Rick

Today is Rick Astley's birthday.

I haven't sent him a birthday card, but in memory of the numerous happy times I have spent bopping along to his 1980's hits I decided to bake a something which I have named
 'Never Gonna Give You Upside down Banana Cake'




All together now..... never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you..........

  1. Awww, it was number one when I went to Benitses in Corfu. I didn't know Mick then but he was in Corfu at the same time. It wasn't until the following year that we met, funny how things turn out.

  9. But what about his dance moves!! I know I'm too old to appreciate him, but he had me in stitches, and I have too admit that blooming song is going round and round my head now. Lol
