I missed your birthday?? Oh no!!! Hope it was awesome and I give you permission to celebrate an extra day. Happy Birthday!

Thanks, yep we had an awesome day with a day trip over to Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, with a special feast in the evening whipped up by wifey, followed by a special home made Middle Eastern treat,

Good afternooning all.

As you may be aware, we had an election over her and the forum where I am a moderator allows political discussion. Needless to say, I have been somewhat busy. Christmas spirit is noticeably absent :(

Anyways, the site admins have given in to the mods appeals and are suspending the political forum and we will be running the same “no politics” rules as TFO very shortly. I just got asked to proofread the announcement so it’s definitely happening! Phew!
I hope you’re all OK in the run up to the main event.

JoesDad and I are are going to see the stage show of “White Christmas” tonight which will hopefully put me in a more festive mood. And tomorrow is the last day of JoesDad’s contract, so we can start preparing for our travels as soon as Christmas is over :)

Oh :censored:... another reported post. Back later :)

What a great way to spend your bday. The wildlife refuge has a beautiful gate. That Would leave you with great expectations.
The best birthday I ever had was a day spent on horseback in Arkansas enjoying the great outdoors:)

Your wife is amazing. That spread looks delicious and healthy at the same time.. if I was closer, I’d be finagling a dinner invitation!

Well I have made the leap... No going back. I have reserved a space for this weekend at the Jewett flea market. It is a nice place, with quite a lot of folks. So nervous
So nice! I love your "sketch" you sent. It's framed and hung. It's actually more like a photograph of a living animal. You are an artist.

I missed your birthday. Happy birthday anyway and everyday. The feast looked wonderful but the turnovers are making me hungry for cherry ones with iceing. I'll have to get baking...
