Elton John at 60

Such joy as I extend my congratulations to Sir Elton John on his 60th. It was witty of him to turn up at his birthday party at the Shoreditch Town Hall in Russian military uniform hand-in-hand with David Furnish in his winning US warrior clobber – no Cold War there then: and as I say to those who listen to my infernal chatter, the longevity of their union owes much to love and a reasonably open arrangement.
