Relationship birthday cards ...

Relationship loves cards.
Maybe its all that time spent as a royal mail employee. 
Or just the love for written expressions of feelings. 
I should know something about that.

Over three years i got more cards than in a lifetime.
My favourite of all is that birthday card, which is not a birthday card. That one describing an escape from life (isn't that maybe the most romantic venture of all?) :

Can we?
Shall we?
One day.
Very soon.
Let us go away together 
just you and me.
Call in sick and go to the sea and hold hands all day.
Eat out sandwiches on the train. 
Get drunk on fresh air and come home tired and never tell anyone...
EVER.

Not knowing why, i remembered this today, i suppose because i am indeed growing up beside the relationship or because Paolo (and the Vipers) is another piece of beauty out there in the world.
