Happy (belated) Birthday, Mr Lizzie

And Happy Retirement! How exciting - at last lots of time to do the things you've always wanted to do.

Now that you're going to have all that time on your hands you'll need to register with POL yourself. You'll be able to make us green with envy with tales of your travelling. Are you going to visit our "virtual twin" in NZ, I wonder?

Marya Mr Lizzie has actually been registered for a while with POL

Perhaps now he'll find time to post

Yes a vist To Portobello in NZ by Mr Lizzie& Mr Poppy, is a possibility I'm sure when they go off on their travels in a couple of months time!

PS Mr Lizzie says thanks to everyone for their good wishes

As far as I'm aware, they had wanted to visit Dunedin & Portobello, but it's too far and would take too much time out of their itinerary ... which is a shame

(but probably not for Portobello, NZ

).

Nobody tells me anything around here

- I have to find out on POL

but you're right Poppy I quite agree

Going to have a chippie from North Berwick at my dad's in East Linton - a treat for my dad on my birthday [something wrong there, surely

].

See ya tomorrow night, Lizzie

Happy Birthday to Ed (Senior and Poppy).

I remember the day you started in the brigade Ed. I also remember you nearly punched me for a one-liner in the car on the way to Glenrothes 7's!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POPPY

Can you not at least have a wee swallie of Irn Bru with your chip supper?

bellybabe · Post by **bellybabe** » 28 Apr 2005, 12:09

Happy birthday Poppy!!!

Have a wonderful time. Enjoy your chips.

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 28 Apr 2005, 14:57

Thanks all - even Porty who has been known to lobone liners my way meriting a good slap!

Marya, I have discovered from doc that I CAN drink booze with my tablets

What a relief. [and anyway I'm allergic to colourant in Irn Bru (and traditional Lucozade)!!]

PS Still off the fags after 8 months, but get the very occasional craving for a Rothmans (don't know why, as I have not had one in years!

)

Bellybabe, thank you very much for your virtual present. That was exciting and rather lovely!

Poppy, that is absolutely magnificent. Well done. You should be proud of yourself as that is no easy achievement.

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 28 Apr 2005, 15:29

PoP, it's been remarkably easy, for some reason! Mr Poppy/El Presidente is just a few weeks behind me .... and he's taken to going to the gym recently to get fit for NZ!!

PS A 'copter has just circled overhead. I think it was probably Epykat who is so desperate to find out what's doin' in Portobello while her PC is out of action she's buzzing over our houses to peer in!!

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 28 Apr 2005, 16:59

Epykat is welcome to pop into The Mortgage People any time she likes for free surf.

Happy Birthday, Dear Poppy. Hope you had a nice day in spite of being at work.

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 28 Apr 2005, 20:32

Have had nice day especially this nice sunny evening. Mr Poppy took me and Pa Poppy to Dunbar [not NB as mentioned above

] for fish suppers which we ate down at the harbour in the sun.

Now sipping some vino in sunny Joppa-ish!!

Happy Birthday Poppy!

there are a lot of POL birthday's in April!

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 28 Apr 2005, 22:06

Happy birthday Poppy. I'm starting to think that maybe we need some kind of birthday book feature on the forum. How about a mod wangi?

Too true, blue. Not having my age displayed for Portobello riff raff to view. No, sireee!

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 28 Apr 2005, 22:21

I'm sure we could mod the mod, so that you got the popup on your birthday but it just reads 'Over 21'

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICKY

nicky · Post by **nicky** » 04 May 2005, 15:44

Cool! Thanks! Been an interesting one. I've been taking care of the 'invalid' one plus off spring, plus fielding a phone call from my mother wishing me happy birthday for the first time in 3 years. Definitely need that emoticion with the pint glasses chinking. In fact the real thing would be even better.

Nicky

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 04 May 2005, 19:52

Nicky, I hope you got a good present from the 'invalid' after her generous gift from you on her birthday!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Pal of Porty · Post by **Pal of Porty** » 04 May 2005, 20:07

Nicky - Here's a birthday emoticon to get you in the mood.

Cheers

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 05 May 2005, 09:52

Belated Happy Birthday Nicky, sounds like you had a birthday that will be long recalled.

Pal of Porty · Post by **Pal of Porty** » 07 May 2005, 11:31

Happy birthday Tony. Sorry I am a day late but I was out last night!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADA

Here's your presents and cake. You do realise that you're the only POLer that has 2 birthday threads started in their honour, don't you?

Dadaist · Post by **Dadaist** » 04 Aug 2005, 12:09

Yeah, but I had to do something to counter the ridiculous assertion that I seek attention. What better way then, but to loudly proclaim it's falseness to as many people as possible, whilst giving me the opportunity to wish myself a happy birthday?

dccairns · Post by **dccairns** » 04 Aug 2005, 12:49

As one of the three amigos, as we have been christened by Porty, may I wish you a happy birthday. Do you know that you share a birthday with Yasser Arafat and my dad?

Porty thinks your dad IS Yasser Arafat!! Anyway, don't forget the Queen Mother - I have tried to, but she still haunts me.

Poppy · Post by **Poppy** » 04 Aug 2005, 14:55

Arafat Schmarafat - Sir Harry Lauder of this Airt was born this day in 1870 according to my paper. Now that is really cool

Happy Birthday to you both!

Oops! Forgot about the Queen Mum. An eclectic group of people and all Leo's.

Now that could be a fun game, trying to guess people's signs (who have not declared their date of birth).
