Certainly is! Can I have a link please.
Don't get rid of the info about why you chose your name. I've got that top of my list to read when exams etc are over.

The Links page is being updated and will be posted as soon as I get time on the PC at home (cos I keep forgetting to bring my disk in with me), and of course once I sort out my damn BT connection again.
Don't worry my dear, your name WILL be on my page

Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Coelacanth,
Happy Birthday to you!

*blushes a deeper shade of blue*
Thank you for the good wishes! It's a very big one too.
*Carefully opens the bottle of Dom Perignon, and pours some into two beautiful glasses*
Cheers! Glasses for this I think, not the hats.
*Produces special occasion straw for the event*

*sips Dom and admires the wonderfully crafted glasses*
Are these Venician glass?
Now, I want you to get a good nights rest, after this.
It is late for you and a school night, and no doubt you will have a
busy evening planned with the girls!

*sips Dom through straw and tries not to make slurpy sounds when draining the Venetian glass. Fails. Remembers joke about Venetian blind. Giggles*
About 1 more hour to work I think, then sleep.
No plans for the big evening, although since life is supposed to begin with this one, perhaps something unexpected will happen.

Ah, you are the second person I know who has had THAT birthday this year. What about the weekend? Nobody planning a surprise party for you? If not, I shall have a drink in your honour on Saturday.
No drinking IRL for me during a nightshift week. It is like drinking at lunchtime!
What's the joke about Venitian blinds then?

Sleep OK, but not enough!
A long day, with many laughs. Lovely cake from good friends at work, bottle of wine handed to me at 8am this morning from one car to another, stopping traffic!
Another busy day as I have a verifier for GNVQ students tomorrow (and if you've not heard of them, don't ask!)
(memo to myself - remember to dress smart! *hunts for name badge*)
THEN, work is really over, and it's fun til the end of term, with a sprinkling of real A level teaching in between. That's where I feel my best. It's like doing stand up 4 times a day (or it is the way I do it!).
However, I still have my freelance writing to do, (the other half of the book, so about 300 pages more although half are done.) This will take up all nights next week.
Weekend: I have another date with Ralph Feinnes (checkout the greenroom link from my page) and pub on Sunday lunchtime with anyone from work who is up for it. Playground for any kids around too, which means people who can't usually get out might make it.
Tonight? Nothing.

Was not too bad after all. Friend came over with takaway, wine and anti-wrinkle cream. (She's younger than me so found this hilarious, but so did I
).
I've just sent email to you!
