Not everyone is remembered on their birthday, so I thought it would be good to have a birthday thread. smile

Anyone celebrating today ?

Happy birthday Luckygirl. Enjoy it! Are there enough candles here for you?

Luckygirl Tue 08-Sept-15 12:41:34

What a lovely cake!! So kind of you. I'll put the kettle on and get stuck in!

Candles look about the right number - perhaps you could tell OH my real age as he sent me a card with my age a year older than I really am!! Grounds for divorce I think. grin

I have received a sweet necklace from my OH - it is a silver chain with a tiny circular sliver of beechwood as a pendant with a pearl in the middle and little crystals round it.

It came as a bit of a surprise, as he asked me what I wanted a few weeks ago and I said a book of poems by Phillip Larkin. He leapt top his laptop, heaving a sigh of relief that he did not have to think of a present (he always gets in a fret about this!). Earlier today I said how nice the necklace was, and said I thought he was getting a book of Larkin (it wasn't a hint - just in conversation) - a few minutes later he appeared with it, having forgotten that he had bought it and then forgot where he had hidden it!! It's a great book! smile

Thank you NanKate I think I will start tonight, with a practice drink

NanKate Mon 14-Sept-15 22:07:30

Yes it's always best to have try out the alcohol in advance, to check it is up to standard. smile
