Born on August 26

Virgo

You make sure everyone has what they need, down to the spare pen and the plasters. Calm in charge, loyal for life.

A label maker lives in their kitchen drawer and gets real use, beside batteries sorted by size and the instructions for everything they own, read cover to cover.

When a friend’s bike chain slips or a weekend plan comes loose, they work out what went wrong and set it right, calmly and properly. Born on the 26th, they see that nobody goes without, from a lift home to a second helping.

Their loyalty is the long-distance kind. Friends from every stage of their life are still close, and each one could tell you about a time they turned up with exactly what was needed.
