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

Anyone celebrating today ?

Have a lovely birthday NanKate's DH. Enjoy the mayhem with the little ones and lots of cupcake I hope!

You are just 68 years ahead of my GS who is celebrating his second birthday today!

Yes, in about 10 minutes time.
No family around, but a very dear friend is taking me to B&Q in the afternoon to buy a much longed for sun lounger, and then back to hers for a BBQ with her family. There are various presents and cards on the table to open in the morning, all in all it promises to be a good one. cupcake

Hope you had a successful and happy birthday weekend Caz.

My DH organised the games and entertainment for his own 70 with the approval of the two GSs 4 and 2 which included a Minion themed birthday tea, a water fight with water pistols, bouncing on the neighbours trampoline, and a game of rounders. Also sausage chips and chocolate birthday cake.

When they finally left our house looked as if a bomb had hit it.

Still recovering. brew

Hope you had a great birthday Caz. Certainly sounds as if you did, NanKate grin

AshTree Mon 08-Jun-15 08:16:47

Sorry that was meant to be your DH, NanKate, not you. Though I'm sure you enjoyed it too wink

Thanks everyone for the good wishes. I had a brilliant day thanks to my lovely friend who, although a busy working wife and mother, always finds time to spoil her friends. A very special lady.

Me !! today !!....Have I got a Gemini twin out there somewhere ?

I am now officially 66 ...no, can't be confused ! but if I was born in 1949...then yep ! I guess that's right....66 ...my goodness where on earth have all those years gone !

Lona Tue 09-Jun-15 07:59:14

Sheena Happy birthday! cupcake
As you said on another thread , we may be nearly long lost twins, I'm a Gemini too!
My birthday is on Saturday 69 I'll be a tad older than you!

Have a good day sunshine

Marmight Tue 09-Jun-15 08:04:03

Happy birthday Sheena. Have a great day! cupcake

cazthebookworm Tue 09-Jun-15 09:03:50

Yes, lets hear it for the Gemini's, happy birthday Sheena. cupcake

shysal Tue 09-Jun-15 09:05:04

Happy birthday Sheena, enjoy your day. I am a Gemini too, June 15th '46. I have read that we are thought to be the life and soul of the party. That couldn't be further from the truth for me, but I do usually see both sides of an argument (split personality?). cupcake

whenim64 Tue 09-Jun-15 09:06:52

Another one here - mine's on the 11th. I think I'll be 64 again grin

whenim64 Tue 09-Jun-15 09:07:54

Happy Birthday, sheena. A lovely day for it - flowers

Lona Tue 09-Jun-15 09:34:51

shysal I can be the life and soul for about 3 minutes, then I get bored!
I always see both sides of an argument, so my friends all think I'm very wise.

Sheena Tue 09-Jun-15 09:46:51

Thanks so much for all your birthday wishes grin .

I don't know about you, but when I read about the various "traits" of a Gemini...half of me thinks "yep, that's me" and the other half thinks" oh no definitely not !!" so there you go........split personality ..but that part is really true...for me personally ... up one minute, down the next. Bit of a butterfly mind flitting from one thing to another. I get easily bored and have absolutely no patience...often in a hurry, but a real lazy bones too. I often am contradictory..say one thing, but get swayed by others' opinions often.

Hey ho....off to enjoy the doggies now, Anyone else like greyhounds ? I am totally hooked !! (NOT the racing though sad )

whenim64 Thu 11-Jun-15 09:29:39

64 again today grin. I've got a birthday tea to look forward to and my 6 year old grandsons have made me a cake. I've been told I should act as though I know nothing about it as they want to present it to me when I take them home from school, before mum gets in. Should I be scared? I have visions of them deciding to light candles and fishing a big, sharp knife out to cut it whilst I'm sat there with my eyes closed. grin
