So now you will have to do the tango every year on your birthday!!!
Our friend Lucas's middle name is Llewellyn. It cracks us all up. Dear old Lucas Llewellyn. he he.
That means Michelle Allen has to do the tango on her birthday too, coz we share the world's greatest birth date!! :p
I think Llewellyn is a weird, cool name, but I wouldn't name my kid that! I've only really heard of it as a last name. Gotta love the Welsh for coming up with names like that! :)
LOL, looking forward to seeing you and Michelle on your next birthday. You should have a tango party!!
I have 'Warning' in my head now. I rather like the song, but you can't Tango to it...
