Very excited, as have managed to procure virtual pencil sharpener for BK's birthday, Have placed it in blank box and written "pointy stick maker" on the outside - imagine her surprise.

Am at a loss with regard to ES.

Hang on a minute - where's the cake?

Look closely. Skidmarks has hidden it in a birthday cake pie, conveniently marked with a "S".

Happy Birthday BK

I did get you a rather splendid present but ES has run off with it, but you can have this locator kit - you might be able to find him with it and get your present back.

Hope you have a lovely day and that the cake is up to scratch.

slightly belated, but thank you all for your kind birthday wishes, and extend the same to all I have missed.

My mum's birthday was 08/04, mine is 09/05 and today is 10/06. This means that I am the exacct age my mum was when I was born. (I am 29 years of age and have been for some time, and intend to remain so for as long as I possibly can.)

Good on you, annie.

A lady should remain at age 29 for as long as possible.

it is one of the conveniences of relative time.
