Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear chickybabe
Happy birthday to you

PS You are one very determined chickybabe for going out in those terrible conditions last Sunday.
Gee LL, you snuck that little birthday announcement in there very quietly.
ReplyDeleteI think it should be shouted:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHICKYBABE!!!!
And many more!
yes - a very sneaky birthday anouncement there! and from the one person who is smashing age-group categories all over the country too!!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY LL!
ReplyDeleteHope you had the kind of wonderful day you deserve.
See you on Sunday.
And, you don't look a day over 50-something. But then, I haven't seen you since the Gold Coast. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday from me as well!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to catching up post run(s) on Sunday. I'll give a yell if I see you out on the course also.
The announcement snuck in just like I snuck into another year! Thanks so very much for all good wishes.
ReplyDeleteBut you'll have to see the birthday cake that Mr LL had made for me...when I take a photo of it!! It was made by the chef at the Bowral Country Club (where Mr LL plays piano on weekends), & is in the shape of a large running shoe!! Chocolate covered, with all the markings of a runner done with white icing & the laces & bow criss-crossed with black licorice strips; it's a masterpiece & can't wait to get a pic here!
Happy (belated) birthday wishes LL.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great run on Sunday!
