My fifth death day was just shortly after yours, Alk! I was away from home on the 12th though, so hadn't the opportunity to celebrate it with due solemnity. Wow, five years is an eternity in this fast-lived internet age.

lol Luth you mad girl **hugs back**
![]() Thanks all, the downs has been a much loved home and while I may not post much I am here most weeks reading and loving you all. Child of the 7th Age I will have a look on the rpg forum and see if any spots are free, I have been doing a lot of roll playing in guild wars with Luth so I hope that I have improved from the old days. ![]()

I would like to wish a belated happy first deathday to a certain downer (who is probably sleeping now, but oh well.)
You know who I mean...(psst...in light of the last WW game, I hope he's having nice dreams... ![]() Last edited by Rikae; 04-14-2007 at 09:24 PM. |

Thaaank you!
![]() I can't believe I've already been here for a whole year. I still feel kinda newbieish. A question to the admins: Would it be possible to have a Deathdays-row beneath the Birthdays-row on the main page. There seem to me more belated congratulations here than congratulations that're on time. ![]() |

I just missed my death day!!
I died 3 years ago yesterday - I just looked up my first post - which wasn't til the 24th. Furnny really - It took me 3 years from playing with Mad libs to join the forum then 3 days to post even in the quiz room ... and even longer to post on Books I think - but I haven't tracked that down yet

I missed my deathday by a few days. But I promise I didn't forget...I was away on vacation in Georgia. Anyways, I may be late, but I will still celebrate. Five years is certainly a long time, though I'm not sure if all those years count since I was away part of that time. Oh well...the main point is that I came back, and I'm quite glad of that.

Thank you, Lommy and Kath.
![]() The Barrow Downs have been like a virtual home to me. I still regret ever leaving. Right now, I'm not sure what I would do with myself if it weren't for this wonderful site...

On this day in 2003, I joined the ranks of the Dead here. These last four years have been fun. Hopefully, more will follow.

Thag you very buch.
![]() I think I'll take this occasion to point out to all that I was born 21 weeks after Macalaure, and also died 21 weeks after him. Because I am a creepy stalker like that. ![]() I couldn't have imagined, a year ago, what a wonderful community I'd stumbled into and what amazing people I would meet. I'll just say a classic "One year is far too short a time to spend among such excellent and admirable wights"... Last edited by Rikae; 09-07-2007 at 07:44 AM. |

Congratulations, HI! Far and few, far and few are the forum members who can claim such longevity here.

Belated congratulations to HI.
I am still grateful for the encouragement you gave me in the early days of my death and am sorry you are not around so much - though I know it is for good reasons. Also thanks to you I have been able to impress my rugby mad family with my knowledge of the Georgian game ![]()

My compliments as well, HI. Come to think of it, I turned seven earlier this month too. An auspicious number! Seven stars and seven stones, and seven years of dirt and bones. Or something like that.
