Have great birthdays, both of you! Kitty |

10 May 11 - 12:51 AM (#3151208) Subject: RE: Happy birthdays, Kendall and Hawker From: catspaw49 Happiest of birthdays Lucy! Wanna' hear a story? Well here it is anyways........... So there was the red-assed baboon which started acting oddly at the zoo. Out of the blue he would jump up, run a lap around the enclosure while babbling various sounds with steaming shit flying out from his cherry colored rump. This was bad enough but he would suddenly stop and jack-off at any passing visitor. The baboon area was across from the pen where the zoo's famous ostrich, Leapin' Lizzie, lived. They named her that because she would often leap into the air as if trying to fly. One afternoon the baboon went totally berserk and jumped onto the fence with such force it fell to the ground and the baboon grabbed his dick which had hit hard on the concrete walkway. Screaming in pain, the baboon's red-ass was seen running into the ostrich pen, dick in hand and screaming. Evidently he thought that raping an ostrich would heal his injured tool and I dunno'......maybe it did. Leapin' Lizzie was his target and the baboon jumped on Lizzie and started humping her violently. Leapin' Lizzie did just that and ran around squawking and leaping as the baboon pounded away while also crapping his guts out. It was quite a sight........... Nine months later Leapin' Lizzie let out a scream like no one had ever heard before as she popped out a gigantic egg. It cracked open as it hit the ground a little red-assed Kendall jumped out, grabbed his dick, dumped a load, and ran away to sea as a cabin boy. Spaw |

10 May 11 - 04:18 AM (#3151261) Subject: RE: Happy birthdays, Kendall and Hawker From: jacqui.c Happy birthday Lucy. I hope the day is a very good one. Happy birthday to my darling husband who reckons that he has now reached the age of old fartdom. I just told him he has been an old fart for a long time - this day just means he has survived another year. He's being fairly well spoilt - early birthday presents from my son and daughter-in-law and lots of attention from everyone. We're about to set of for parts south, heading to Portsmouth for him to be serenaded, in the great cabin of HMS Victory, with 'Carrying Nelson Home' - all arranged by Mudcat's own Cats. Thank you so much Kathy. Wish you could have been here - I hope you heal up soon. For both of you Live long, die happy. |

10 May 11 - 05:16 PM (#3151660) Subject: RE: Happy birthdays, Kendall and Hawker From: Herga Kitty Cats - I think Kendall enjoyed it! It was the best organised and best-kept-secret present you and Jacqui and Mike, with help from MGAS and Richard, could have thought of and delivered! Not just that Kendall was serenaded with Carrying Nelson Home in Admiral Nelson's cabin on board HMS Victory (which the public aren't generally allowed access to), but that Mike O'Connor came out from hiding in the Admiral's toilet to surprise the Captain by singing it himself, with concertina accompaniment. Plus the special guided tour of the Victory from CPO Taff, and the tots of rum served in the officers' mess (also privileged access for Kendall's private birthday boarding party) while we sang Happy Birthday to Kendall. And having subsequently repaired to the Still and West for a late lunch, Mike O'Connor proposed the birthday toast to Hawker. Of the dozen people in the HMS Victory boarding party, 9 were Catters - Kendall, Jacqui.c, myself, MGAS, Richard Atkins, North and South Annie, Jock o'Dreams, Micca and Crowdercref. The other three were Mrs Crowdercref (Tina O'C) and Bob and Barbara Griggs, and 11 (ie everyone except me) are now at Chichester folk club, where Mike and Barbara are this evening's guest artists. Thanks everyone (including the Admiralty) for a fabulous day, and for letting me be part of it. Oh, and it was a lovely warm sunny day in Portsmouth, too! Kitty |

11 May 11 - 03:58 PM (#3152286) Subject: RE: Happy birthdays, Kendall and Hawker From: kendall I can't possibly express my thanks loud enough to all who had a hand in this conspiracy. I have never been so honored in my life! To meet the man who wrote one of the most moving songs I have ever heard was great enough, but to have him sing it for me aboard my hero's ship HMS VICTORY was so far out I'm still in orbit! I nearly came all "Un together". |

13 May 11 - 01:51 PM (#3153480) Subject: RE: Happy birthdays, Kendall and Hawker From: Cats I am so glad it all went well. When Jacqui said that Kendall wanted to spend his birthday on board Victory and she thought she might sing , quietly[!!??!!] Carrying Nelson Home, twas then that the whole idea came to mind. I had long telephone calls and emails with Lt Cmmdr Whilde, [CO HMS Victory] and eventually managed to persaude him that both Kendall and Mike O'Connor were Very Respectable Persons [says so in their security check]. Then the conspiracy began with calls and e mails flying around and across the pond to get it all sorted. Thanks to Mike and to Hils for being co conspirators and thanks to HMS Victory and The Admiralty for pulling out all the stops. Sadly, after all the organising and conspiratorising I didn't get to go cos I still had my stitches in after my op and couldn't walk up the stairs let alone a gangplank! Happy Birthday, Kendall, You deserved it. xx |
