Woot! I will be turning **30** (yikes!) on May 16th! My twin sister and I will be in Paris, France, so I expect it’ll be a good one.

Ditto on the day, **Cunctator**! I’m going to be 35 at 5:13AM.

We share our birthdays with:

Sir Ian McKellan  
Gino Negri  
Frank Oz (cool!)  
Connie Selleca  
Igor Sikorsky

On the day I was hatched, _Midnight Cowboy_ was released and the Sudanese government was overthrown in a military coup.

Only just seen this thread. I see I was mentioned in the original list, which surprises me no end.  
Thanks very much **FlamsteretteX**

See - you think you’re pottering about in a fairly inconspicuous manner, one of the drones, and wallop - conspicuous happy birthday wishes!

Thanks again, I had a great birthday, it was a fortnight ago and some parts of it are still making me smile.
