bellybabe · Post by **bellybabe** » 20 Jan 2005, 12:07

Yes. I'm the evil one. And Bob was born about a decade and a half prematurely.

Gosh! The birthday greetings just posted by DG & Porty are EXACTLY the same in number, type and sequence.
Are all POL'ers merging into one!

Well, I thought I'd really push the boat out this year. I thought I would start the day with a power walk to school and back, cancel the gym because I've got a cold and feel crap, look after youngest, do a bit of housework, powerwalk back to school and back at lunchtime, celebrate with the bread and butter youngest didn't eat before nursery, make a cup of tea, do a bit more housework, procrastinate by logging onto POL, avoid the studying I should be doing because my brain is mush... Then shortly, I'm going to powerwalk to school to pick up youngest, hang around there for half an hour waiting for eldest, race back down the road, throw them at babysitter, run to bus stop, jump on 26 (well, step sedately) into town for a 4.15 appointment, leave appointment at 5.15 to run from there to college, where I'm going to try and learn something for three hours, after which I'm going to scrounge a life home and collapse in a heap. Oh, and I don't have time for dinner in all of that.

Sound like fun?

I was apparently going to be whisked off somewhere fancy for dinner tomnorrow instead, but now that we both have colds that's postponed too. I think if you're having an expensive meal it's better to be able to taste it!

Birthdays. Woohoo.

That's really scarey, P of P! Disconnect now when you've got a chance

Bellybabe, there's always another day you can celebrate your birthday. Get well soon!

Doesn't sound like much Birthday fun, what are you studying BB?

Many Happy Returns to Bob and Bellybabe -

Birthdays are not quite the same once you get that little bit older are they

especially when they land mid-week.

BB, sorry you're not feeling so great - hope you get better soon.

If I'd thought, I wouldn't have put yours in the post!!

Thank you Porty. I'm getting more senior by the minute. Maybe we should log everyone's ages to see what the demographic profile of this forum really is!

Many Happy Returns, Rathbone.

Hope you've had a nice day.

Lizzie · Post by **Lizzie** » 03 Feb 2005, 18:30

Congratulations Rathbone, hope you are having a super birthday

Did you know you share your birthday with Ray Davies from the Kinks, and Frankie Vaughan

I'm sure you' re old enough to remember them both

I think we did that already and from memory 35-45 age group was best represented. Since then we have at least one new granny, which makes at least two grannies who are still regular.

Mind you being a grandparent is no surefired indication of age. If this was a Welsh or Dundonian community site for under 40's chances are most users would be grandparents.

Is there anything you don't know

Happy Birthday Rathbone (or should we call you Norris

)

Many happy returns Rathbone. When do you plan to be in Portobello next? Maybe we could organise a meet up? Same goes for all you other ex-pats out there. We might even fly a flag for you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EPYKAT

This must have been a really expensive time of the year for your parents....Christmas followed by THREE birthdays

ecm · Post by **ecm** » 07 Feb 2005, 14:29

Was it Mum or dad's birthday in April/May by any chance, Epykat?

Hope you're having a great day. Many Happy returns.
