Happy Birthday, jess. Sounds like a busy but enjoyable two days you have ahead of you smile. I was noticing the fist few dog roses out in the hedgerows yesterday. That and the arrival of swifts do indeed mark the beginning of summer. Have a good day today and a good summer to follow! flowers

flowersHappy birthday, JessMwine! Like your family, mine don't exactly go overboard at my birthday either! My eldest daughter always remembers and gives me a card and a small gift, but my other daughter and my son never seem to get round to anything, though they do wish me a 'happy birthday'.
Good luck with your meeting and as it's your birthday I think you should have an extra portion of the cream tea!
Enjoy your lunch tomorrow with your gransnet friend! I'm meeting up with 3 of them tomorrow, and I'm so looking forward to it! smile

Isn't it good that so many Gnetters are getting together at last? I'm looking forward to the next occasion at the beginning of July - now that I've got over my reservations about losing my anonymity!

Have a fabulous birthday, Jess. You have some opportunities to indulge yourself with the cream tea and outing tomorrow, so I hoped you really enjoy yourself flowers

Greatnan Wed 30-May-12 10:17:29

Happy birthday, Jess - your flowers sound lovely.
I can't complain about my own birthday being overlooked because I have said for years that it is just another day, but I have to confess to being quite pleased if any of my lot remembers!

Late answer Bags sorry; YES it is!
Talked with the staff in Wellworthit (our version of Woolworths) about 50s playground games; the subject brought the whole shop to a halt and all ten customers came and chipped in with memories! A great community event smile

Happy Birthday Jess. Your home-grown and hand-picked bouquet of flowers sound fabulous. sunshine

It's a good idea to have a birthday on a memorable day. My family can't forget Guy Fawkes Day. grin One of my old school friends had hers on April 1st.

Goodnight jeni! smile

Greatnan Wed 30-May-12 22:49:37

Good night, jeni.
I have a grandson called Guy - guess what date his birthday is? I have another one born on 31st December - I always get him two separate presents but many people tell him they are just buying him one extra good one for Christmas. I think that is rotten!
One of my daughters has children with very easily remembered birthdays - 3rd April, 4th September, 5th November, 6th December- she spoilt it with No. 5 who was born on 11th October.

My senior GD's birthday is also hogmanay. I give her separate gifts, but as they are usually money they end up in the same bank account.
