I'll be spending the 25th on my own again, (my choice) apart from my friendly family of Maggies, indulging the 4Rs, Reminiscing, Remembering, Ruminating!, and Reclining in the shade of our lemon tree in 30+C (hopefully).
An opportune moment to drink toasts to (mainly) absent family, friends and even foes plus all GNetters.
To that end, I'm compiling a library of "toasts", such as;
"May you live as long as you want and never want for as long as you live"
"Health to those I love and wealth to those who love me"
"May the best of the past be the worst of the future"
"Here's to being single, drinking doubles and seeing triple"
" A nos amours"
"It matters not if the wine glass is half empty or half full, clearly there's room for more!"
"Here's to not pissing yourself!" (Dry underwear is worth celebrating!)
" Up Yours!" ( All purpose toast)
""Lang may yer lum reek"
"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust; when your day is a bitch, whisky (or Shiraz) is a must"
Need more to last the day! 
Cheers.
