It's your day! Happy Birthday! - Page 58 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Pitchwife · 11-19-2011, 11:11 AM

Here's to a great role-player and the most forbearing of Werewolf Mods. Happy birthday, Foley!

Inziladun · 11-22-2011, 06:34 AM

A very Happy Birthday to Pearl!

Galadriel55 · 11-22-2011, 08:35 AM

Happy birthday Greenie! May your smile shine upon the Downs ever longer!

Pitchwife · 11-22-2011, 08:41 AM

Happy birthday Greeniemuna! I'd say you're A Big Grown Green now.

Galadriel55 · 11-27-2011, 04:28 AM

Happy birthday Hilde!

Hilde Bracegirdle · 11-27-2011, 02:37 PM

Why thanks very much Galadriel55! I wish you much happiness as well!

Mithalwen · 11-28-2011, 06:39 AM

Belated happy birthday Hilde..

Hilde Bracegirdle · 11-28-2011, 06:50 PM

Your wish is my command, Mithalwen! I did have a very pleasant day today, and hope that you may say the same!

I only wish I could share a bit of the ice cream cake that is languishing in my freezer, but unfortunately the postal service might object.

Mithalwen · 11-28-2011, 07:01 PM

I will take the thought - and the reason I was late is because I spent the day going up to London to meet Aganzir, and Kath and the Squatter of Amon Rudh and it was a merry meeting in a most hobbit friendly setting though being rather taller than a hobbit I had to watch my head...

Hilde Bracegirdle · 11-28-2011, 07:44 PM

Ah, then you did have a good 27th! Very nice! But I do hope you met in a "hole in the wall" rather than a "hole in the ground", which in London might just be the Underground.

Mithalwen · 11-29-2011, 04:29 AM

It was the ground actually! Though I did get the tube up from Waterloo - shame since it would have been a nice day to walk it but not having ventured into London since I trashed my knee last year I didn't want to push my luck. Gordon's is a cellar bar with low vaulted ceilings like brick lined smials and lit only by candlelight. What with even the centre of the arch being close to my height in heels I had to be careful so I did really feel it was hobbitty. thereis another door onto a terrace and then a park so I think any hobbit that ventured into the big city might feel at home- though alas old winyards was not on the Wine list.

Bêthberry · 11-29-2011, 08:56 AM

This is what happens when I don't visit regularly!

I'm sorry I missed your birthday, Hilde Bracegirdle, but I do hope you had the best of celebrations under a Party Tree with lots of 'srooms and ale.

What are you looking forward to for the coming year? And what have you been up to lately? And, well, I hope things are splendid out your way.

Hilde Bracegirdle · 11-29-2011, 07:47 PM

Mithalwen, Gordon's sounds perfect! But I wonder how they would have reacted had you shed the elegance of heels and made yourself at home! I'd be tempted to find out.

Bethberry! Hello, hello! I think I will be saving that party tree celebration for my 111th, certainly did chose a poor month for it though, didn't I? My paper lanterns would run a fair chance of sprouting icicles!

Now about those 'shrooms'. Had a large helping of criminis and roast fowl with capers. But there is always good food in the Bracegirdle house, birthday or no.

As for the year, I'm off to start a new adventure next month, which I do hope proves splendid! After 2 years of waiting, I'm finally getting released from my current job and will be starting the new one. It feels unbelievably good to be able to move on.

Galadriel55 · 11-30-2011, 09:07 PM

Happy birthday Almesiva!

.

Actually Hilde, I only changed into them going in and they were not particularly elegant heels - more office everyday type than party ones- but having hardly worn anything but clogs or my lovely lavender timberlands for a year due to a slow recovering knee injury I felt I should make an effort going up to Lunnon...

And the bar was so dark that noone would have seen..though the stone floor would have been a mite cold on not hobbit-hardy feet and it got so busy they might have been squashed my precious....

Inziladun · 12-04-2011, 08:29 AM

Happy Birthday to that Nogrod fellow!

Galadriel55 · 12-04-2011, 08:54 AM

Happy birthday Nog! Many more WW, recordings, moots, and wurst, and essay-free days!

Pitchwife · 12-04-2011, 10:08 AM

Happy birthday Nog! Live long & prosper (and don't let them essays wurst you)!

Nogrod · 12-04-2011, 03:55 PM

Thanks.

The essays almost wursted me, but I hope I'll survive...

Eönwë · 12-04-2011, 04:55 PM

Happy birthday to Noggie, and all those whose birthdays I've missed.

Inziladun · 12-06-2011, 08:38 AM

Well, Happy Birthday G55!

Fifteen was a while back for me, but a good year nonetheless.

Mithalwen · 12-06-2011, 01:55 PM

Seconded On the while back and wishes .. I remember it being too full of exams to be a great year but I hope it will be for Galadriel...

Many happy returns little cub...

Pitchwife · 12-06-2011, 02:00 PM

Thirded on both accounts. Happy birthday, G55, and may you still haunt these Downs at 51!

Guinevere · 12-06-2011, 02:48 PM

Many happy returns of the day, Galadriel 55!

Aganzir · 12-06-2011, 06:14 PM

Happy birthday Gal - even though I admit being two hours late!

Galadriel55 · 12-06-2011, 08:46 PM

Thank you all muchly.

Your congratulations make me feel happy and special - no other girl my age that I know gets such wishes from all over the world.

Galadriel55 · 12-15-2011, 06:23 AM

Happy birthday TEW and Lari!

Legate of Amon Lanc · 12-15-2011, 10:28 AM

Seconded happy birthday to TEW and Lari and, as I have noticed only now, one-week-belated happy birthday to Galadriel55! (Haven't noticed when it came, I had been exactly away from 'Downs during those days!) Hope it was at least a good one, but seems at least with the 'Downers' wishes, it was, so good

Galadriel55 · 12-15-2011, 04:41 PM

Belated thank-you to Legate!

It was indeed a good one.

Pitchwife · 12-15-2011, 05:11 PM

Happy birthday Lari and TEWie! Hope to see both of you werewolfing again some time!

Inziladun · 12-17-2011, 10:32 AM

Happy Birthday to Andsigil, and belatedly to Lari and TEW.

Galadriel55 · 12-17-2011, 10:42 AM

Happy birthday Andsigil!

Galadriel55 · 12-21-2011, 04:58 PM

Happy birthday and best wishes to Oddwen! May we yet see many more oddities from you!

Inziladun · 12-22-2011, 08:05 AM

Happy 21st Birthday to Agan!

I would ordinarily say, "Don't do anything I wouldn't do." But in this case, I think it would be a lost cause.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 12-22-2011, 12:55 PM

Hyvää syntymäpäivää, Agan!

Pitchwife · 12-22-2011, 01:52 PM

Happy wurstday, Agan (and belatedly over here to Oddwen)!

Galadriel55 · 12-22-2011, 04:23 PM

Happy birthday Agan! What Legate said.

And happy birthday Meela!
