    I think that was me @Huia. A vintage year indeed - maybe we should have an on-line party?

  • Today is the Feast of the Ass. Perhaps not coincidentally, it is also my birthday. :lol:

    Today, I have had my driver’s license for 48 years, and I’m one year away from Medicare.

    I am 75 today. How did this even happen?

    Anyway, the sky is giving me a pretty dawn - pale blue and rose pink with touches of gold and drifts of smoky cloud.

    On the 8th January my dad would have been 103. His dad was born 140 years ago this year.
  • Today, 27th January, is Holocaust Memorial Day. It is a sobering thought that the world's Jewish population now is still less than in 1939.

    Oseh shalom bi-m’romav, hu ya’aseh shalom aleinu v’al kol yisrael, v’imru amen.

    May the One who brings peace to the universe bring peace to us and to all the people Israel. And let us say: Amen.

    I was unaware of this. Logic should've told me, but it didn't. Thank you.

    Happy birthday in Heaven to my dad, who would have been 100 today. :heart:
  • Happy Birthday @Piglet! 🎂🍾🎉💐 (Well, it's been your birthday here for almost half the day already 😊)
  • CaissaCaissa Shipmate
    Happy birthday, Piglet.
  • NenyaNenya All Saints Host, Ecclesiantics & MW Host
    Happy birthday @Piglet , hope you're having some fun today (or is it a work day?) and plan a nice meal with wine this evening.
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    Happy Birthday @Piglet. I hope you have a nice day, and don't work too hard (or at all if possible).
  • Happy Birthday, Piglet!
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Thanks everyone! :heart:

    I was at work today, but I had a lovely lunch with most of my family yesterday (including cuddlage from some of the littlies).

    My colleagues gave me a card and a bottle of WINE, and I've got a steak marinating which I'm about to cook for supper. And yes - there will be a glass or two of WINE with it, although not from the bottle I got today - it looks rather special*, so I might want to wait until I can share it with somebody!

    * it's even got a Proper Cork™!

  • Happy Birthday, @Piglet, and many happy returns!

  • Happy Birthday @Clarence 🎂🍾💐❤️
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Many happy returns to her from over here too! :)
  • SarasaSarasa All Saints Host
    Happy Birthday from me too @Clarence. I hope it is/was very enjoyable.
  • Thank you! It was a very fine weekend altogether and made up for being 60 (I'm writing the number so that I can keep working to convince myself that I am).
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    That's all it is, Clarence - just a number. I turned 63 last week, and I don't feel a bit different from how I felt the day before.

    Glad you had a good celebration - if bus passes are a Thing in Queensland, then health to enjoy yours! :)
  • Belated birthday greetings to both @Piglet and @Clarence - I'll be joining you in that club, later in the year!

    St Davids Day. 25 years ago exactly, I went with my daughter to the Millenium Dome, basically so that I could say that I had been there.
