Max, thanks for hangin' in there despite all the ups and downs, slings and arrows etc.
Steve, GET OVER IT! I never celebrated my birthday at work (allegedly 'cos I was too mean to buy cakes) and I tried to resist celebrating at home. My parents insisted I have a 21st- said if I didn't come home from University they'd have the party any way-so it was mostly their friends that came. 'Er indoors insisted I celebrate my 50th so we went to the Cook Islands to get away from everyone, and my 60th where we all went to the Jazz Club for a Blues night and I sang at 'em (served 'em right!). I don't celebrate it on Mudcat (self-righteous pompous prat that I am), you're still yonger than me, ower kid, you don't need us to blow out your candles.
