Happy birthday a bit late, Auntie. Hope your day was a fun one.
But all night, Aslan and the Moon gazed upon each other with joyful and unblinking eyes.
Thank you so much! I had a family breakfast at a restaurant, then arrived at work to find red balloons attached to my desk and a lovely vase of flowers. Later I had presents from two workmates, and some more flowers, and then morning tea for all the staff in my honour. Well, it was a special birthday this year. How kind they all were.
There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself.
"...when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."
I'm tardy here, coracle , but my grand wishes for your birthday are none-the-less!
It sounds like a really special day, and ... enjoy your party tonight!
Sending love over the vast ocean.
I probably posted this last year too, but it's just so sweet and apropos ...

Thank you!
I celebrated again on Saturday with a party with lots of friends in fancy dress costumes, having fun - and not a Narnian reference in sight, although in a fun facts True/False quiz about myself I asked if it was true that I had seen the house where CS Lewis lived.
Earlier in the morning I completed an 8 week programme to learn how to run, and we did a 5km non stop run!

Sounds like a great birthday, coracle!
Wishing aileth a very Happy Birthday today! We're so glad to have you on NarniaWeb!
This is the closest cake I can find to a 'fireberry' cake (noting your avatar and sig set
).

Ahhh! Four cakes in one day. No wonder I feel so full. Thank you, jo! Of course, it's all right to have close to the right number of candles on a virtual cake--then there's no need to burn down the house by putting the full complement on the edible version.
When my grandfather had his 70th birthday, they put seventy(70)--yes, seventy--candles on his cake. To put it mildly, there was a lot of heat coming off it. Didn't burn anything down, though.
Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away ... my days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle
So cool that you ran a 5k, coracle! What an awesome birthday present to yourself!
And here's some (belated!) birthday wishes to aileth! I hope you have a wonderful new year, filled with fun and friends! (And yummy leftover birthday cake!
)
And, wow, your grandfather's cake must have been impressive!!!

Hmmm, this is weird. So, I totally posted a Happy Birthday message for Valia in this topic earlier this morning before I left the house, and it's ... gone! 'K, giving it another go here.
