Happy Birthday. Hope it's been a good one.

:) Just swinging by to thank everyone for their greetings. I've stopped thinking much about birthdays long before now - but it's been an OK day :)

Prezzies (mostly edible and chocolate flavoured) were waiting when I got home tonight.

Best wishes to your Mum, Looby :) Not that much catching up - just the next step in the number sequence......

One of the earliest non-linear 'next number' sequences has stuck with me for years:

1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, ;)

Is that the one starting 2, 7, 11, 23...? :ugeek:

Sorry - late again - but hope you had a really good day and enjoyed all the edibles and chocolate.

Happy belated birthday!

(I love that expression! I went shopping for birthday cards in October and found a whole stand of really nice belated birthday cards, but not very many nice on time cards. I almost considered buying one of the belated cards and giving it to my friend a day late!)

Perhaps you should invent an "Early birthday card". You could corner the market. :lol:

You know what ? That is a brilliant idea! I often remember someone's birthday at the beginning of the month, and then forget to send a card on time. I might make some.

Yes I do that. I still haven't bought the two I need for this week, and one of them is tomorrow, so it will definitely be late. :roll:

For a variety of reasons --- no I've not been rumbled and spent time in Strangeways - I've not been on the forum for months!

Happy happy birthdays to all those people I have missed

(sorry, I only did that because fernando has ben pointing out to me how witty he is because he got one laughing face, then two. I thought giving him 3 would cheer him up: he's so disappointed he didn't have to go to school)

Is that Brian I see wandering off and muttering something about "Kids today", and "Respect for their elders"?
