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

Anyone celebrating today ?

Drink up and have a great day!!!

NanKate Sun 27-Sept-15 16:53:19

Thank you everyone for your kind words, do have a glass or two of wine on me.

Shysal it is the cafe at the Quince Tree we use the pub us far too pricey but it is the same kitchen and chefs. The setting is just beautiful.

We will be having smoked salmon sarnies tonight, delicious chilled white wine, a fruit tart and meringues with raspberries. Plus a basin full of the Rugby. grin

Yes; I often think of her, too.

That is spooky Alea, I was only thinking of Greatnan yesterday, I didn't know when her birthday was. I also remember her with great affection. flowers

NanKate, I have made a mental note of your recommendation, for my 70th next June.

Happy birthday to all the other family member mentioned. sunshine

Happy birthday Nankate and september birthdays. My Dh birthday is today he's dancing round the bedroom ! he's 64 and in 366 (leap year) days he will be a free man in his words. Retired grin

Thanks Kitty September is a lovely month to have a birthday IMO - the weather is often good, Cox's Orange Pippin are ready to eat, the dark nights haven't yet arrived and the trees are just beginning to turn and I love the misty mornings. smile

kittylester Sun 27-Sept-15 08:03:41

Many happy returns Nankate and anyone I've missed recently. My baby brother is 57 today, DS2 is 42 tomorrow, DBil is 67 on Tuesday. Add to that 2 x DGDs being 2 & 7 on the same day, Septmber gets expensive round here!

Thanks so much Shysal what a lovely surprise to get your yummy low calorie cake for my 69th TODAY ! How thoughtful of you, were you up all night baking it for me? I am a nutaholic too especially with a nice glass of sherry.

Off to The Quince Tree at Stonor for lunch today. If I remember correctly you are from the Oxford area so you may have been there. It is just lovely in the cafe.

Finally Happy Birthday to all fellow Librans. smile cupcake wine

Happy birthday NanKate, hope I have the right day. Here is your low calorie cake with a side order of nuts!

Charleygirl Tue 22-Sept-15 13:34:57

shysal thank you so much- the cake is perfect, I will have a slice or two later this afternoon.

I am going out for a meal on Sunday so that is something to which I can look forward.

shysal Tue 22-Sept-15 12:43:11

Enjoy your day Charleygirl.

Luckygirl Tue 22-Sept-15 11:46:32

Lots of happy birthday wishes to this week's celebrants!! smile

Bellanonna Tue 22-Sept-15 11:34:35

I didn't mean another young, including myself, if you see what I mean !!

Bellanonna Tue 22-Sept-15 11:33:56

Ah, another young Libran. I'll think of him too ann !

Bellanonna Tue 22-Sept-15 11:32:53

annsixty Tue 22-Sept-15 11:30:49

Bella not personally but my GS2 is 14 on the 30th so I will think of you and say a distant Happy Birthday to you.

Charleygirl Tue 22-Sept-15 11:30:12

Bellanonna I sincerely hope that it is a virtual sighting or the local hospitals would be overcrowded having had so many people fainting.

Bellanonna Tue 22-Sept-15 11:24:57

Happy 72nd charley girl. I'm not sure where people are seeing you. Or is that just a virtual sighting ? I won't be here for my 75 th. I'm following in galen's footsteps, or sea legs, and hope to be somewhere warm on the 30 th. And I'm a very typical Libran ! Does anyone else have a birthday on the 30 th ? Would love to know.
Meanwhile enjoy your day Charleygirl wine

Charleygirl Tue 22-Sept-15 11:14:42

Thank you so much, I feel 100 today instead of 72. I am sure that it is the heavy rain which has not helped my mood.

annsixty Tue 22-Sept-15 10:36:31
