Yeah, that’s right. Everyone’s favourite spud turns 16 today. Well, OK, not really 16. Although she could pass for 19. No, really! As some of you know, she’s been going through a rather, shall we say, hectic few months. All through her problems, she’s never let her head hang. She keeps a lot of people updated about her life in Memphis, her job hunts, et cetera. (And dammit, I ought to send her more e-mails!) If ANYONE deserves a big HIP HIP HURRAY, it’s Tracy. Tracy, happy birthday, and many happy returns. You’re doing a fantastic job coping with your life. I’m sure I speak for a lot of people when I say that you’re truly inspirational in your efforts. I can’t wait to have you back on this side of the pond. Next year, we’ll toast to your health IRL. For now, this’ll have to do. Cheers, m’dear! ---

Happy Birthday, Tracy!! You wanna know something? I still have the leprecam picture in my wallet. We’re all really looking forward to seeing you over here again. I’m also in the “must send Tracy more e-mails” group. After all you’ve done for me, I should try harder to return the favour!! Wishing you all the very best, John ---

I hope you have a glorious day - you deserve it. You’ve done so much for Jill and me, and I really, really hope to see you over here before too long, so that I may thank you in person. And perhaps hoist a few to catch up on birthdays and other celebrations. Have a great day, now! Loads of hugs, Spiny. ---

What is **LC’s** preoccupation with my boyfriend’s penis? Next thing you know, he’ll be offering to take it on a test ride for me. Although, come to think of it, by now, **P** , might just be frustrated enough to welcome that offer…😉 ---

Dear Officer Bonkers of the Penis Police, What is it ? I dunno – not sure I have one. But it fitted in quite well with the general thrust of the Lim so I went with it. Beside, I don’t know anything else about the young man (which _is_ slightly disconcerting)…ya gotta go with what you have ! Coldie and Spiny…he…he God, I love this sunshine !! ---

May ALL your wishes come true, sweetie! > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by tatertot \* > Oh and **Trash**? Watch out…I’ll be back in **Trashland** come June 14th! YAY! YIPPEE! YAHOO!! I sure hope this means you’ll still be there come August 25th, 'cuz if so, Hamburg had better be on your itinerary so I can give you a RL birthday hug (and maybe even a spanking - hehe)! > [@](#): > > _Originally posted by Spiny Norman_ > I quite agree. Hoods - I mean **hats!** - off to **L\_C**. No, No, NO! Hoods must remain **ON** at all times!
