24 Oct 07 - 08:33 AM (#2178010) Subject: BS: SINSULL'S 60th birthday - 24 October From: jacqui.c I know the lady started a birthday thread for herself and others, but I really think that she deserves one all to herself on this auspicious occasion. Mary has been a real support to me since I moved to Maine and is unfailingly kind and generous to just about everyone she comes into contact with. I'm sure that there are an awful lot of Mudcatters out there who can attest to her acts of kindness, mostly done very quietly. Many, many happy returns you old bag - live long, die very happy with chocolate in one hand and champagne in the other. |

Yours is an easy one to remember -- same day as my mother (but you're waaaay younger!). I second Jacqui's wish -- live long, die very happy with chocolate in one hand and champagne in the other. And I suggest you celebrate the anniversary of your birth for at LEAST a month! Have a great one! Linn |

Wait ...... where's that friggin' ring? ...... that will get me out of the gorilla house..... damn .... the ape ate it. Shit. Best cure for a hangover is whiskey. This is wisdom passed down through the ages. (where the hell did that come from????) KT, oh muse of the north, I think you captured her right on the mark. All the best, Sins.
