To start with, HAPPY BIRTHDAY
shu_shu_sleeps !
Spookily, you have looked younger every time I have seen you in the last two years. Keep it up, fabulousness is wasted on the very young and you fab with so much more panache than most! Hope you've had a great day, I was going to call you but was trapped at work and I am quite certain you're at dinner now. My timing sucks!
Thank you so much to everyone who sent me such lovely wishes, including

rickey_a ,
romaine24 ,
sansa1970 ,
sbbo ,

shu_shu_sleeps ,
snottygrrl ,
thisgirl_is and
tomatoe18, and to everyone who sent comment greetings! I will try and get back to you all before I leave the country on Sunday, but if I don't, you all made me smile widely and gave me a truly lovely birthday! Thanks again!
And to A and SA, (aka A1 and A3), Cheers darlings! A2 forgot, you know. She is feeling guilty, it's quite fun ;-)
PS Please don't anyone say thanks for the thanks, or it will end up like the Thank You Cards for Great Aunt Irene Saga of 1979-1983.
PPS By god the tennis is good tonight! And I hear Melbourne has a cool change, *hopes it sticks*
