Belated Happy Birthday to Olga

No, not at all. You're only a wee bit late, k. (Roberta started the thread on the 28th in the US. Technically the right day! )

And thank you for such a lovely message. Oh.

I wish I could personally thank everyone who has posted their good wishes here. May I just say thank you, you to all of you. This is really nice!

You're so gracious!

It's true!

And you're so kind, kind, k. Thank you.

(would you believe I spelled that as knind, the first go?! )

ha! I am a good speller, but only when I write. When I type I am terrible. Happily there's the auto spell check fucntion... er... function.

What did you do to celebrate your bday?

Spelled or spelt, that is the question!

You'll think I'm crazy, k, so I hesitate to say exactly how I spent my birthday.

OK, I will. Writing a press release, then later on, standing in the middle of Sydney Road at a street festival handing out leaflets ... while muttering "Save public parkland in ....berg, really fast & really enthusiastically!"... 758 times! (A little group I belong to is holding an event in a couple of weeks' time. We want to save some existing public space from development.)

Yeah, nuts. I know. Don't tell me.

Then later, dinner out with a friend. Good!

I think that's a great way to spend you birthday! You were doing something you believe in.

Sounds like a perfectly excellent birthday, MsO! doing something that you don't HAVE to, but need to/want to/enjoy - that's a good birthday.

I do, too, k.
And I was.

And thank you for not telling me I'm nuts.

Playing the bongo on upside down under the desk garbage container,...
one, one,....one two three,...
Hap hap happy Birthday M Ma Ma Mso Msooolga

,..and many many more.

Yes, & the company was good, too, Beth. (We did shifts.)

Tomorrow I'll be approaching something like 100 (wild guess) local traders to post leaflets in their windows advertising the event. Wish me luck!

Oh thank you, alex!

So, ya gonna cook me a special treat?



Ha! I have trouble saying that, say nothing of spelling it correctly! Why did I call myself that?

You have to be beating a bongo singing a bongolated version of happy babongo birthday to say that properly.
Please comprise a menu. No more then seven courses please.
Its your birthday, eight.

Happy birthday, Olga! I'm not sure why we don't seem to have appeared on each other's radar screen until a year or two ago. But I'm happy that we have now. Have an orgy now and many birthdays in the future. I hope you can have one of them over here in the States. Your fan club here is huge!

It gets confusing at such an advanced age, doesn't it? 95/100/102, all much the same.

And I must say, you don't look a day over 29. Approaching 100. I am impressed

You do!

Oh you're too kind, alex!

Hmmmm, let me think: A spaghetti marinara (not sparing the garlic! ), followed by some fresh fruit & cheese. That would be lovely!

Oh & washed down with a chilled sauv blanc!

Oh goodness me, Thomas, you do say the nicest things! You charming devil!

I will arrange an orgy post haste! (Why didn't I think of that! )

It's been a great pleasure knowing you, too!

Oh! Thats right up my alley.. been there, done that (or similar). Good time on a birthday, all right!

Yep, Beth, all much the same.

Ancient!

Thank you, osso!

(Another person who hasn't told me I'm crazy. This is good! )
