Happy Birthday **Fierra**!

Hope you had a wonderful day **Fierra**.

And **Una** , you rock. I’ve rarely come across such a thoughtful generous person, and it’s a privilege to share this board with you. You and **Fi** are such wonderful people and I’m so glad you’ve found each other.

Feh. I’m late. Well, that’s what you get for having your birthday on a weekend, silly.

Still - just 363 days until I can try again.

Thanks for the wishes everyone (I’m skipping bolding duties, so watch out for the names carefully as the credits roll past…).

UnaLove - thank you. And thank you for making my birthday a happy one even though you weren’t there. And for being evil & sneaky & scurrilous where misleading re presents is concerned. I love you.

matt\_mcl, thanks for the fireworks. It’s close to bonfire night over here, so a lot have been going off early. I can claim that they’re for me!

Thanks, Booker57, I still think it’s funny too, but then I like bad puns…

Odie, I know you haven’t been talking to my mother so it must have been the nurse…my nan kept telling mom that nurses for humans don’t wear green over here! & me too re the wishes. Oh well, next month…

[ignores typo, um, canuck spelling, that is]

NotWithoutRage - sadly, not at all, I’m still on antibiotics, any partying was very quietly & soberly done (I must be getting old! ;)).

Thank you YWalker.

Thanks, Abby, I need all the blessings I can get I think.

Dr. Lao, that’s OK, I got an extra 6 hours of birthday due to Una being in the Central time zone, your wishes are well within that (& any time before my official birthday next month still counts).

Thanks Arden.

Thanks, Mauv - hope you had a good day too (at least the computer eating it is a bit more plausible than the dog…they’ve never really gone for electrons!) & it was a good day - I got some beautiful roses (a dozen, long-stemmed roses, so deep a red, that they are almost black & velvety) from Una.

Thank you, Cheri. Nice wish :).

Thank you, Miller - it’s the 27th. One of my friends at school had the 28th - she was semi-jealous that I got my presents sooner, but could tease me about being older.

Thanks, JimB. Blush.

Rue DeDay, thank you & I will try very hard. Glad I didn’t have a repeat performance actually on my birthday. That would have been miserable.

Thanks, ultrafilter & Grace, too.

Thanks, Zoggie - you’ve evidently never heard me play or sing! 😉

Neat, thanks Cougarfang, I only knew happy new year before.

Why, thank you, Miss Jazzmine.

Thanks, hardygrrl, callie & Persephone. Sorry to make you share thanks, I’m running low on witticisms. Slice of cake each to make up for it?

astro…thank you for everything except the maths - I’m 31. 😛

Thanks, vix. It had Una-gifts & Una-phonecalls, so it was good. I also got flowers from my mom, as she won’t be able to give me my birthday present till Christmas & cards & most importantly (in the non-Una league) for a bookworm like me, a £20 book token from my godmother. Now I get to have fun deciding what book(s) to sepnd it on…

Thanks ellele.

Thank you, Biggirl, & don’t let her fool you, she’s the special one.

Thanks, techie. Want to teach him remedial maths as well as manners? 😉 (Poor astro, it’s alright, really).

Merci beaucoup, Mudshark.

poohpah - what flavour? I have about 4 tubs of Haagen Dazs in the freezer…

Rasa, thank you & yes, fewer trips to hospital would be good. I have varied the hospitals I have gone to - the staff shouldn’t be too sick of me though!

Thank you, BlueRose. (I know, I can’t resist the Eddings reference & merging your real & screen name. Birthday girls can get away with that).

Thank you, Mr.C - are you staying Mr.C this time? :: Pauses & checks the appreciation thread…yep, you are. Nice extra birthday present! Woo! :: You’re good people too.

Thank you, Verrain, poor rhyme  
Is not a crime  
If the wishes are sincere  
or there is free beer…  
(OK, mine sucked too ;))

Thank you, Ringo & quite a bit better. I had to pick up soem more antibiotics today - but I also picked up a plastic flashing pumpkin in the chemist’s shop at the same time. Anyone saying that I’m too old will be in trouble!

Thanks, Ginger. I’m assuming you went to the same school as Odie. \<You canucks covering each other’s backs…guess you got to with how cold it is up there already. A cold back…eep!\>

Thanks, Zenster.

Thanks, aenea. I don’t know where everyone got the wonderful idea from… Oh, from Una? Ok, I’m not going to argue with her!

TY2, ianzin.

Thanks, TVeblen.

Thank you, Lib.

Merci beaucoup a toi, aussi, Esprix.

Thank you, punha, both for the energetic song & the present ;).

eunoia - coward! Can scorpions tiptoe? Thanks :).

Thanks, tisi & not that late.

Thanks, reprise, & me too, re finding Una (& the other nice stuff you said about her too). Good to see you have such good taste in people ;).

Thank you Pammipoo!

Thank you, MamaHen, I don’t think that would actually be possible. Thanks.

Thanks, Anniz - another languange! Neat :). I have no idea how on earth to say it though!

Thanks Enuma Elish, for both wishes. Happy easter to you, too :).

kabbes - yes, well planned to avoid work. At school, it was always during half term holiday, and I went back in time & got one of the popes to tweak the calendar for me so that I’d get maximum weekend birthdays, allowing for bank holidays & everything. Neat. Of course, I hadn’t realised about birthday threads at the time…

Tansu, thanks.

& last, but not least, thanks, Simetra.
