A very good birthday Nilp!

And greetings from the cold and dark Helsinki - just thinking of your latest picture moshing at the sandy beach while it's +5 C outside and pitch-dark... (Nogrod)
Hehe, I once invited another Finn to come and drop by, unfortunately she didn't oblige. Maybe you and your brood would like to come?

(Yeah, ignore the travel ban, it's not as bad as people think it is. )

A birthday lament for Kransha, leader of my first RPG. Guess age got the better of him

I hope this will not be deemed inappropriate but a birthday memorial for a downer who took ship far too soon: Gralin . I think she would have been just 21 today. I think of her often because of what Tolkien meant to her - and as a reminder, when I start to mind my, age that growing older is a privilege not given to all.

I would like to wish belated happy birthday to all the folks whose birthday I missed... Roa, Nilp... everybody... it's actually horrible, haven't I said already at this very thread not that long ago that whenever I am away for a while, loads of people have their birthdays? No idea how that always comes.

And, not less importantly, happy birthday to the Bagginses! I wondered if anybody's gonna remember them, because I think they should be named here!

x-ed with Esty. Nice somebody remembered.

I would like to wish a happy birthday to the Spectre of Capitalism, Thenamir! When I first joined the Downs I was a big geek, looking up on everyone of the moderators and active member's posts. I particularly enjoyed reading Thenamir's. I hope your Spectre comes back to haunt the Downs soon, have a good one Thenamir!

Three? Not two? Did I miss something? Anyway, I hope you enjoy your family time and I wouldn't mind if you came back to post...
