Title: Calender and birthdays
Post by: Granny_Smith on July 15, 2004, 11:28:38
Just having a browse on the calender and found that we have a very 'elderly' member who will be celebrating her 115 birthday next January !!!
Should we be organising an early party for her now, just incase ?? or is she not being honest with us and is using her ladies privilege and not revealing her true age.
I think a party is in order, not to mention getting a card from the Queen to honour the occasion. Was anything left over from last weekend's do ? What should I buy her for a present - she has probably got everything by now.

ooh, Emma Jane, my 23 was different - first home together (and paying for it!) two kids, far from my own family and living in a city for the first time (culture shock or what!) now at the other end (63) I have grown to love this city, assume this will be our last home together (and a happy one it is), no "kids" at home but plenty of visits from them and their offspring, no work (no paid employment that is) but always on the go and loving every minute of my life - even the creaking bones in the mornings - so long as the OH's creak in unison!

My 23 is different too. Got a flat with rent, bills, etc. Happily partnered with my fiancee, scraping a living togther with each other. Wouldn't change it for the world.

What a dear thought, Ratty.

23?  India/Burma. At least I learned at first hand how you 'tie' a sari. Never had cause since!= Tim

I'd do the second half of 23 again - got married then.

But not the first half. No thank you.
