It’s my birthday today: I have, against all odds, reached the ripe old age of fifty-three. Who would have thought?
So I’m celebrating today and not blogging.
This is the not blog that I’m not blogging.
At work, we have a custom of bringing goodies in on our birthdays. My pulchritudinous wife made eighty sausage rolls and cheese & onion rolls for me. I served them up at 1000 yesterday and by 1008 there was not a crumb left. I think I work with locusts.
Happy Birthday…… and where is my Sausage roll ?
Thanks.
In someone else’s gullet!
Happy Birthday! Here’s to reaching 53 and celebrating.
Thanks Kate
happy birthday
this is not a comment
Hi Kyle, this is not a thank you. ‘Tis really.
Happy Birthday!
Thanks
Yummy sausage rolls. I’m sure if your wife had made twice as many, they would still have all gone.
Wishing you many more happy birthdays, Rob.
Many thanks. Yes, they are insatiable.
Happy Birthday Rob!!! Great foto of you with your, is she a border collie? I actually thought of you this morning when I went to http://photobotos.com Their foto of the day is great and I thought, this is something you’d see on Rob’s site. Have a happy day.
Hi Susannah,
Yes, that’s Smudge the border collie. She’s a sweetie. Even though Maeve feeds, walks and grooms her, she shoves Maeve out of the way to get to me when we come home.
thanks
Rob.
Happy Birthday!! Mine’s coming up on the 30th.
Thanks Paula. Hope you have a good day.
Happy Birthday Rob – here’s to at least 53 more!
Not sure I want to live that long Lisa but thanks for the birthday wishes.
The rule at my house is 113. My children are under strict orders to put me out of my misery if I’m still around. I refuse to be 114.
Does 114 have some special significance for you?
Only every time I read a news article about the “world’s oldest” person dying, they always die at “114″. No good will come of me reaching 114.
cool dog. not sure what the breed is
but it’s got a lovely coat
i think people in offices grow this third personality… (notice i say third)
they begin acting like they’re on No Reservations.
Too much of encouragement to be more “social” and mingle probably.
hope you ripen some more.
Smudge is a border collie.
I think the food goes fast because the food goes fast, if you see what I mean. You have to get in quick if you want some!
Many thanks.
Well Happy not blogging Birthday! I hope you enjoy it and the not blogging that you blogged!
Not thanks for the not feedback.
you (not) welcome for the feedback…that doesn’t work does it??
Probably not!
lol
happy day too you Rob
Thanks for that.
Happy Birthday!
You still have 18 years to reach my age…
Many thanks.
This comment is not a comment… it is a birthday greeting.
Many thanks Marc
parabéns, as they say in Portuguese.
So, we do have something in common after all. Just a tad younger than Moi.
Well done, Rob. Here’s to the next fifty.
Thanks Ark but I’m not planning on lingering that long!
Big happy birthdays and yes, I think you have the same bug problem that I had 20 days ago when I came in with a cake. But it might just have been Piranhas, who knows
Many thanks. I’m glad they enjoyed it really. And Maeve is always chuffed when she gets that kind of appreciation.
We do something similar in my office; I had to leap back proper-fast so my fingers didn’t get snapped off!
Happy birthday, dude! ^_^
Many thanks Ileandra.
Hope it was a great day!
Pretty quiet really: just how I like it. Many thanks.
Happy Birthday! 53 is a great age
I think you must work with locusts too!!!
Many thanks
Happy Happy Birthday!!!! Sausage rolls sound delish!
This is not a belated birthday wish; happy birthday; nor is it a comment on your not blog.
So this is not a not thanks for both not the birthday wishes and not the not comment. (I do not think)
hehe
Happy (belated) Birthday from Nick – Birthdays get longer the older you get anyway, so I hope you got in some more sausage rolls or even treated yourself to a Scotch egg or two.
Hi Nick,
Many thanks. I’m not really into scotch eggs but I’ve been quite self-indulgent with beer, curry and footy this week.
Rob.
Happy Belated Birthday.
you look very handsome in this picture.
and isnt your wife a sweetheart! we love free food at work!
That is kind of you Evelyn: I am most flattered.
Many happy returns, even if I am a little late. What a very handsome chap; you don’t look too bad yourself.
Awanthi,
Smudge is a little girl dog!
Rob.
Oh! Many apologies to Smudge! I can’t think why I thought her a boy. Well, she is very pretty – and so are you.
*runs for the hills*
No apology required: she’s really not sensitive to these things and, besides, she’s on her back and legs akimbo at the least excuse, so little is left to conjecture. If you think I’m pretty, you’re overdue a visit to the opticians!
*chuckle* She sounds like a typical happy dog. As to my eyesight, I suspect that this is sadly true! I think I might need a pair of glasses. I’m starting to hold my book further and further away from me. It’s not a good sign!
There are none of us getting any younger!
My eyesight is good enough to say you have a beautiful neck.
Why, thank you very much!
(1) I like the not blog you didn’t blog
(2) Oh heavens I miss sausage rolls! Used to sometimes stop at the bakery for one after getting off the school bus in the afternoon.
Why don’t you eat sausage rolls any more?
