One of the rare occasions when decorating the cake board takes a lot, lot longer than the cake that's going on it!  But I had to ensure there were 13 stripes - 7 red and 6 white.  And there are 50 stars in the blue square.  Apparently, the birthday boy hasn't been the USA and so his present from his wife was this cake, two tickets and some US$ spending money!  What a wonderful way to celebrate a milestone birthday.
