Happy Birthday Eliza.

Here is a typical Oz birthday serenade:

Why was she born so beautiful?
Why was she born at all?
Because she had no say in it,
No say in it at all.

(Don't worry. It doesn't make much sense to me either, but it's an Oz tradition. LOL)

How very kind of you. I'm twenty one you know. (again)

My sister, the little monkey, sent me a card with a huge spider on the front. Husband produced a most beautiful card covered in flowers and glitter. He always writes a long, loving essay in French on the back, which always makes me happy.

One of the cats (Murphy) has been sick on the hall carpet, a true feline Birthday gift.

Unfortunately, I had to have several blood tests this morning at a local surgery, and the lovely nurse, Jayne, kept taking one ampoule after another until I reckoned I must be nearly empty, so I've had a nice long nap to recover.

Just sent you a PM! Wish I had known it was your birthday too as I would have wished you many happy returns on that too :-)

Blood tests are not the best of things for birthday presents but I can beat it. On my 60th I had a colonoscopy! They took an internal picture too which now has pride of place on the bookshelf. Makes an excellent talking point :-D

All the best and many more of 'em.

St. Michael's Day is her birthday.

I'm always very naughty and open any cards as soon as they arrive (birthday is actually tomorrow, 29th).
Many kind neighbours put cards through our door this morning while I was at the doctor's, and my sister's card arrived with the postman. Blooming hairy spider on the front, I nearly jumped out of my skin hee hee.
The heap of buttered crumpets sounds just the job beardedbruce.

That blooming nurse (she's actually lovely, but still...) took so much blood I reckon she's making Cannibal Black Puddings. I bet the tests come back 'anaemic'!

Having a great Birthday; the sun is shining and we've been to the big Tesco. Bought...er...crumpets... (to help keep me slim) and a 'sop to Cerberus' in the form of some fruit. It's lovely to be twenty one yet again.
Have an excellent weekend everyone!

It was hard to believe when the art school burnt down again and more completely than last time, but the latest I've heard is that it is to be rebuilt exactly as it was - they have complete specifications, plans, drawings and photographs. But goodness knows how long it will take.

Hahahahaha Raedwulf! At my age, I reckon birthdays are a really bad idea. But one gets extra crumpets, neighbours have brought round boxes of chocolates and sweets, and it's been so lovely eating them all (husband helped).

This evening we had a post-Birthday fish-and-chips takeaway from a shop we'd never tried before. A bit pricey, a bit far away to go regularly, but absolutely delicious.

If one had a birthday every week, we'd be so fat we'd have to live in the garden, or have our front door widened.

My apologies to one and all.
I forgot about it, this year, until it was October already.

Herself had her birthday
on the final Sunday in September, in 2019.

Her PM to me says it was a very pleasant one.
Husband safely returned from visit to family in Africa.
Smokey Pokey is still alive,
and "Spirit" aka "Sam the Skull" is well.

And, Tattie Bogle, she is thinking of you.
Sound as if Senoufou has benefited from stepping back and simply lurking,
as much as we all miss her.

Thank you all again for your good wishes xxx
I haven't had a buttered crumpet for a while because I've been told to lose a bit of weight :( But I've now lost a stone and a half, 21 pounds,so perhaps...
The best present of all was a phone call from my dear sister. She's still poorly with post-Covid lungs, but is being very stoic & stalwart and trying to walk around her village in Scotland further and further each time. She bought an oxygen machine for use at night, so her O2 levels are getting better. It was so lovely to hear her voice.
Also, my husband's sister Ramatou has started to recover from the bad bout of malaria (we sent money for a medic with a drip) (I mean a transfusion drip hee hee) and she's no longer vomiting.
So all the lovely greetings on Mudcat, and both our sisters getting better. What a fantastic birthday eh?

My sister is sadly still 'under par' with this extra-long Covid. She's a determined lady, and is now teaching bridge as well as playing in tournaments. Also trying to do her table-tennis again at the club. Some of the players are over 80! She trails round the hilly places near her home with her daughters and their partners.

Inside was a little plastic urine sample pot. She knows I have to have some tests at the doctor's in a couple of weeks and I'd told her I didn't have any suitable container for my sample. She added that she'd been tempted to gift-wrap it, but had decided not to bother. Normal for Norfolk!

adding more hopefully-not-too-late greetings!!

it used to be a tradition on Mudcat that we had birth months, not just birth DAYS ...

or was it just Joe who had a birth month?

Thank you all once again for your good wishes and kind greetings.
I had a very nice birthday yesterday. Neighbours flocked round (including the two gay veterinary nurse ladies next-door, who have a Sanctuary for farm animals threatened with death by cold-hearted farmers). They are so sweet and kind, and may get married soon. They brought a lovely bouquet of flowers and some table mats with decorations of farm scenes. (I help them a bit financially with their Charity)
Husband sent me a lovely handbag (via a courier) and a card with lots of love in, and he's saying we'll probably get back together before long, which I long for.
My sister phoned and we had a lovely long chat. So did an old friend in Somerset, who's 83!
I sat on The Bench in the warm sun, and all the village dog-owners walked by with their pooches, wishing me a Happy Birthday. It was just lovely.
I feel so lucky, and the kind comments on Mudcat have added to that feeling. So thank you all again XX

So here's many happy returns of the day.

Thank you so much keberoxu. So kind of everybody! I don't actually feel all that much older (I'm 73 now!) although sitting on The Bench in the sunshine has tanned my face and given me a few wrinkles. Ah well, at least it may have boosted my vitamin D levels, which helps the immune system! As my (very) Norfolk neighbour says, "Yew gotta keep a-troshing mawther!"

Hee hee Backwoodsman! I must say I don't feel particularly 'old' and I'm in good health, which is a blessing. Actually, having sat on The Bench in the strong sun a lot recently, I resemble a Siamese cat (tanned face, hands and feet!)

ANother year for our Eliza/Senoufou.
I never get the exact date right --
many times I'm too late;
this year, I suspect, I'm ahead of time.

So, looking forward to a happy birthday
chez Monsieur et Madame Senoufou:
Bon anniversaire!

How very kind of you all! (My birthday is on Friday). I'll be 74 - gulp!
I had a doctor's appointment this morning, just a check-up, and was told I'm in good shape and don't look my age. Probably due to my giving up buttered crumpets and losing three stone in weight.
My husband bought me a rather funny birthday present for Friday - it's a new bra! Hee hee! He got the size right, and it's a very nice one. He does make me laugh.
Thank you all again for your kind wishes.

Thank you all again for your kind wishes! I had quite a nice day, although husband had to go to work. I sat on The Bench in the front garden, and many neighbours handed me a birthday card - so heartwarming.
Thank you Donuel for asking about my sister, who has Long Covid. She's still rather weak and poorly, and has badly hurt her knee. She's been told she must travel all the way up to near Aberdeen for an MRI scan, and may need an operation.
