Happy Birthday candles
We’ve had a week of celebration in the studio starting with the birthday of the fabulous Henk, whose age we won’t disclose but let’s say he’s way older than McAteer Photo as we turn 17 this week!
The giddy teenager that we are decided to celebrate with some birthday haikus penned by the team, the tenuous link being that a haiku has 17 syllables – but you knew that already.
And just in case you thought we were getting boring in our old age, mucho cakeage and bubbles have also played a part in the celebrations.
It’s freaking Alan out that they do not rhyme so we’re off to pacify him with another doughnut but we present our efforts here nonetheless.

Studio dog Izzy couldn’t quite get her head around the whole 5 / 7 / 5 syllable combo so she opted for a party hat and a lick of a jam doughnut to celebrate 🙂
