Hi Phil.

Happy birthday!! You're catching up, fast.

Happy birthday Phil.

Happy birthday Phil (probably the person whose posts I most enjoy reading).

Hope you have a lovely day.

Thanks for the nice comments, here and privately. I can't resist sharing with you all the lovely card Matt sent me:



That's one of my wildest fantasies depicted right there.

(Namely, that I'm taller than Kirk. )

Oh sweet Lord, I swear on my life that about ten minutes ago I was gonna post something along the lines of "Happy Birthday Phil. I shudder to think what MWM might have PM'd you."

So having missed that boat, I shall just say "Happy Birthday Phil"

Oh - that's why you've got a busy weekend. Lots to fit in!!!!
Have a fine one.
S x
p.s Love the Dulux Ad you put on the Pop Master thread. Vaguely remeber it, but have slept since then!

Oh my!! Where did you nick that picture of me looking upwards from?

Can't wait till it's Sue's birthday

Is that what we're doing?

Happy birthday Derek! 33! Your avatar makes you look nearly twice your age!

Happy birthday, Derek!

A rather late Happy Birthday, Derek. (I've just got back from CoLei2.)

Let's celebrate!

Derek was one of the first people to welcome me back from my absence!

Thank you very much for your greetings Jason, James and Alec - and for your usual backhanded compliment (or is it a fronthanded insult?) James

I would send you a bit of birthday cake, Jason, but it might be mouldy by the time it's crossed the world!

. . . and thank you to CoLei too!

Sorry to miss your birthday on Saturday, Derek, as I was at CoLei2, so didn't know. I hope it was a good one.

So now we've both met Sue - isn't she a scream?!
Totally how she seems on the forum, whereas I'm exceedingly more boring IRL.

Thank you for your belated wishes, Julie. Very kind.

Yes, Sue is very lively. I put some fish in her mouth last time, and she calmed down.

Not really fair to call yourself boring though - some people just don't show all of their personality for a while.

Go Seattle!

Happy 34th Birthday to Sarah White!

Happy birthday, Sarah!

I've been out all day, so just enough time to wish Sarah a Happy Birthday!

Julie, you know I've always thought you were sweet!

Happy Birthday to the great man himself!

Oh, and I see it's Richard's birthday too

(Didn't want to to the ancient "fungi making mushroom for a celebration" jokes, so did that almost as old one instead)

Happy Birthday Richard Brittain!

Thank you. Please all feel free to send me money via Paypal.

Happy belated birthday, Richard!

Is it his belated birthday today?

Happy Birthday, Lesley!

Happy birthday, Lesley!

Happy birthday to fellow Apterite and fellow Yorkshireman, Nick Boldock!

Happy birthday, Nick!

Happy Birthday to the M1 - 50 today.

Happy Birthday, Julie!

A very happy birthday Julie.

Thanks, Alec and Ralph!
My birthday's going well so far!
Cooked brekkie in bed, cards and pressies from kids. Special meal and cake later.
Family outing planned for Friday when Philip doesn't have college lectures.

That all sounds good to me!

Happy birthday, Julie!

Julie T wrote: Cooked brekkie in bed,

You cooked breakfast in bed? I always wondered what it would be like to live in a kitchen.

Happy birthday Julie!

Julie T wrote:. Special meal and cake later.

Important areas all covered then
I'm not saying you'll have your important areas covered by cake.
Or am I?

Happy last 20 mins of your birthday

Thanks, Ralph, Jason, Lesley and Sue! I had a great day!

LOL! If you want the long version, Kirk, my daughter, Claire, cooked sausages, bacon, black pudding, egg (both fried and scrambled), tomatoes, mushrooms, beans and toast, in the kitchen, and brought mine with a cup of tea, to me in my bedroom!
And no, if anyone was wondering and interested, she isn't looking to leave home anytime soon!

Ah, no, Sue, no-one to be that naughty with ATM - men are too much like hard work!

Happy 40th birthday Sesame Street
Isn't it time Burt and Ernie were outed

In a parallel universe, they have been.

That's right, Phil!

Sesame Street has survived the "N Generation!"

Happy 13th Birthday for tomorrow (Saturday), Kai!

A grown up teenager, like my youngest, Henry, became last week.

I always remember enjoying weekend birthdays the most when I was younger, as you have more time to enjoy yourself. Hope it's a good one!

Just so Naomi can prepare herself:

Happy Birthday to Ben Hunter too - 24 today!

And, don't worry, Naomi, not all teenagers turn into grunting, whining, eating machines!

Happy birthday to
Kai and Ben.

Happy birthday Kai and Ben!

A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KAI


Well, you did say you wanted a cake! Hope chocolate's OK.

And happy birthday to Ben as well! (Sorry, I ran out of cake mix.)

Seems like the ideal time for a reprise of Laddiman's Cake Walk.

Love the poem, Jeff Burgin wouldn't approve though.

Thanks everyone.

Happy belated birthday, Kai and Ben!

Happy birthday Kai!

Are you sure you're only 13?

You definitely have the knowledge of someone at least 4 times your age

I would suggest 5 times.

Hope you had a great day, Kai.

I'm sorry I haven't posted this earlier, but I've been very busy lately.

For our birthday boy today, I will repost:

If only I could have gotten myself motivated, I would have posted earlier. Two weeks ago was terrible.

Please ask me if you'd like to know why.
