February 8Th 1989 11:20pm Ricky-Lee Wright blessed the earth..
OK i wouldn't go that far, but he sure did make an impact, first surviving child of Helen and Cliff, born with an obsession for all things transport and a humor only a certain few care to laugh at, he later became my big brother!
My brother is someone i look up to, without a doubt. He left school with 11 gcses after taking his maths exam's early, He got a job with in a week of leaving school and had a full time job with a yearly bonus and a car and a college course before the age of 18.
Before he reached 20 he was engaged and had his own flat.
Yesterday he celebrated his 21st birthday.
The past few months have been hard after he split from his fiance and battled to stay sain wile trying to arrange bills and accommodation.
He has pulled through it and yesterday he enjoyed a lovely 21st birthday.
So here's what happened...
Friday night he had a birthday meal in town followed with drinks with 20+friends.
Saturday he went out to Sherwood with a few friends.
Sunday he spent a night chatting at friends houses
Monday, his birthday went a bit like this...
I got up at 6:45am and we opened his presents.
He got cards a plenty, £21 from his gran(wish i would have thought of that), An engraved trinket from his uncle, 2 t-shirts,a leather wallet and a ncfc hoddie from me, his little sister and booze,scratch cards and pjs from mum and dad.
anyone spot my cupcake card ?... Teresa has already!

He then toddled off to work were his mates made sure he was reminded what day is what at all hours.
I went off to college and collect his birthday cake.
upon returning home me and mum decorated the cake and house with banners and balloons.
We then awaited his arrival home, armed with a cake with nicely lit candles and a camera...
some other people also waited...
tehe, can you see the balloons all over the garden..
anyway,
we then ate cake and chatted and he opened the cards that came through the post, he even had a handmade one from a lady across the road.
He later told us what a lovely day he had had. There *Are* other photos but there deemed to embarrassing to post.
Anyhow, i love parties and when I'm 80 with my little slippers on ill still be celebrating them.
Here's to another 21 years bro, xxx
