********************************
I could quite get used to this not working lark. I am on a weeks leave and today I went for lunch with a friends whose birthday it is today (Happy Birthday Helen)
We ended up at the Trafford Centre. I have not been there for simply ages and it is such a shame as it is 10 minutes from home.


We ate at Rice Flamebar & Grill and it was superb .. 2 courses for £6.99. Well worth a visit if you find yourself in this neck of the woods.
2 more of my mates have a birthday this week too (on the same day) plus it is my great nephews too... what is it about March !!!

This is fairly amusing ... it is a Birthday calculator.

Amongst other things it tells me :-
My fortune cookie reads:
'Your ability to juggle many tasks will take you far.'
(not wrong there)

I am 1,486,488,503 seconds old.
In dog years I am 6.7334637964775 years old

My Birth tree is

Elm Tree, the noble-mindedness

Pleasant shape, tasteful clothes, modest demands, tends not forgive mistakes, cheerful, likes to lead but not to obey, honest and faithful partner, tends to a know-all-attitude and making decisions for others, noble-minded, generous, good sense of humour, practical.... (mmm that could be right too !!)

Go on give it a go :-)
