Tomorrow evening, here. Because the earth has gone round the sun 33 times since I was delivered unto it. Or something. I'm old anyway. I grow old I grow old, I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled*. Yes I know it's a Wetherspoons. You try and think of somewhere reasonably central that won't be heaving on a Friday night.

Eightish, flight from St Helier etc permitting. NB that text messaging me doesn't work, calls only.

* Oh Lord. "And indeed there will be time/ To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”/ Time to turn back and descend the stair,/ With a bald spot in the middle of my hair-/ [They will say: “How his hair is growing thin!”]". Sad but so true.

In the seasons birthdays come I know
But to weatherspoons I cannot go.

Sorry I can't make it, but you get to join the older than Jesus club anyway.

Oh, I heard something today and wanted to check it, and M and you just might know: Was Jesus really crucified on the 7th of April?

So it's been said, although I don't know how official ANY date can be.

This is quite fun:

That was fun, thank you. :)

I am fine with any date other than the 7th, really. :)

Hah. Didn't we argue about Prufrock last time I saw you? And I was right.

Sadly I don't think I'll be able to make it because there's just too much stuff to do before I go away. But I hope I'll see you soon.

I adore prufrock. It's been partially, but only partially ruined for me by association with a Crap Ex, but it's still great.

ooh, would be nice...I think I have to be doing birthday stuff with a friend though. :(
Re: crap exes. Mostly they are, but I do have a few excellent ones.

Do you have any other kind of ex?

Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry, but I can't make the timing work. I hadn't realised you weren't starting until eight, and my cat feeder is arriving at quarter to nine. If I come first, I won't be able to meet her, which would be utterly out of order because she's coming down early at my request. If we come to you later, I'll never get my packing done and I need to be compos tomorrow because I'm driving.

Next time, I promise. And K will probably be in Jersey before the end of November.

Well, that's the bugger. I can't remember, so I can't prove I was right.

Bricklayer's, maybe...

Everywhere is packed on Friday... apart from Weatherspoons... for a reason ;o)

Bollocks. I only just saw this post. It turns out that I'm also shunning my mother who returns from the US today, which could go down quite badly since I haven't seen her for a month.

Happy birthday!

I'm sorry, but I'm unsure if I can make it, after all.

Many Happy, etc :) My next birthday will be my 33rd, so I'm anxious that you don't use the word 'old' too often.

Happy birthday, hope celebrations were good. Regrettably was not in form for hauling self into town, I'm sure you were adequately supplied for whiskey buyers :)
I trust you will be celebrating 33 1/3 revolutions around the sun? Its traditional you know.

Happy birthday!

[livejournal.com profile] slemslempike is also signed up and was looking for others attending if I recall correctly (am a bit flakey currently but the remnants of my grey cells think that was what she meant)

not going to be able to make it. have to risk disaster on TBBH (the big black horse) in a competition on Sunday. I'm quite scared by this, so have to ride TBBH round the local proxy on sat. afternoon. If I live, I'll be contrite.

Sunday was a bit of a disappointment: we were going fine, but between fences 16 and 17 (out of 20) the saddle slipped over and I was on my arse. The girth wasn't tight enough, which is no-one's fault but my own, although it was Fred who tacked him up. Cue stamped foot. How was your birthday drinks ?

the foot doing the stamping was mine...

Good to hear you're riding. BTW, if you can make the ball, you're welcome to stay with us in the new pad.
