Today I am 80!!!
« on: February 04, 2016, 05:59:23 AM »
I’d just like to announce:

Today I am 80! 

I realise of course that I'm still way behind LJ, and I know it’s not an unusual age to be these days, but, with sensible living and grateful acknowledgement to the NHS I’m thrilled to bits to have arrived here! I never thought I'd get this far!

It is, quite appropriately I feel, tap class this morning, so I can’t think of a better way to celebrate. 

I'm just over ten years behind you and wondering which bit is going to stop working or fall off next!

Have a great birthday!

Happy birthday SD!  :D

Thank you very much. I don't usually take any notice of birthdays, but this one I thought, well,  it is a bit special! :)

The rest seem to have said it all, Susan, so I can't do much more than simply reiterate what has already been said.

Dear Susan,

Eighty!! eighty, I thought you were older :P so a birthday today then your star sign is Aquarius, Mystic Meg says, you will be in full admiration of someone with the colour blue in their name and try to avoid Jehovah witnesses as they will sorely vex you.

It's all true Susan, it is written in the stars.

Happy Birthday, you wonderful lady ;)

Just to add my best wishes to the preceding ones for this special day.

Hope you have a lovely time whatever you choose to do.

Well done, Susan.  Your Tarot reading this morning indicates that a tall dark stranger will want his bill paying, but still, look on the bright side.

all the best Susan and happy birthday!
A lot of people don't believe that the loch ness monster exists. Now, I don't know anything about zooology, biology, geology, herpetology, evolutionary theory, evolutionary biology, marine biology, cryptozoology, palaeontology or archaeology... but I think... what if a dinosaur got into the lake?

Many thanks for the good wishes. It was tap this morning - energetic and enjoyable as always - then at coffee afterwards, they'd organised a table for (most of) us plus a birthday cake! So that was lovely.:)

I'm pleased to add my congratulations too, Susan. I reached 3/4 of a century last week, and thought that was a bit of a milestone, but if I can do as well as you in 5 years time(assuming I'm still here) I'll be delighted.

Cheers. :)

Warmest congratulations Susan - if I have half your energy and zest for life if and when I reach 80 I'll be very pleased indeed.
