Hugh Hefner, the indomitable spirit of Playboy, recently celebrated his 80th birthday at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles (which is apparently somewhere in North America) with a little help from his friends.
Meanwhile, floating on a damp island in the North Sea, good queen Liz settled down in front of the TV and fed the freshly-baked scones to her corgis. At least, muttered the Cow, that's what Germaine Greer said, and since she said it in The Guardian, it must be true.
"Ah!" interrupted Gramsci, "but she gets two birthdays, and the official one happens in June, so perhaps she's saving the naked men leaping out of the cake for that one?" A bit warmer then, the Cow had to concede.
