BS: Julie B is ** today!

Happy birthday Julie!

I won't give her age away: suffice it to say some would call it a Biggie, though she's a good way behind me.

oo-er. Julie, there is a distinct absence of an invitation to cakes in your office. This has been noted in the info centre, and consequently your priveleges are under review.

Have a good one anyway, in the cellar bar at lunchtime??

No, Dai, the pub at Kingston (12.30) or the Kings Arms at Bedford (8.30 tonight)

Arghh!!! I though I'd gotten away with it! No posters stuck onto lamposts on my way in to work (well I suppose I did make that difficult by moving house yesterday!) or balloons on the office door.

However, anyone able to attend this lunchtime will be able to easily identify me at the bar of the Kingston Tavern - Thanks to a colleague, I'll be the one wearing the large flashing, tune playing, badge that says ' Life begins at **'.

Dai - I can't understand what's happened to the cakes. A special celebration batch should have arrived, by courier, with you at the info centre by now - I can only assume they must have been intercepted en route!!!

Best wishes from Rushden!

Hope the pubs aren't too smokey today :-)

We'll understand if you sit down to sing this evening, too much cake!!!

...Thanks Sue!

Fretless - are you a Bedford Folk Club regular? If so:

a) are you going tonight
b) how much will it cost me to keep my age a secret?!

Incidentally, Steve P has assured me that he will not be including "No-one loves a fairy when she's forty" in his repertoire at the Kings Arms this evening. :-)

As I'm sure you all know, the asterisks indicate that the variable formatted is too wide for the defined length of the output object. This clearly means that Mrs B has reached 3 figures today. Her apparent youth and glamour can be attributed entirely to the magic green pixie boots she wears...

...What a memory (or lucky guess!). It must have been 1999 when my magic (suede) green pixie books last made an appearance at an office Christmas party. Haven't had occassion to wear them lately, but still can't bear to part with them! :-)
