On February 25th, as the plastic duck of Destiny has been sunk by the
loofah of Fate, and old father time has gone wrinkly in the bath water
of Eternity, and it must be time to pick out the short hairs of Hope
from the bath plug of Infinity and say "Happy Birthday to Melody, Buxom
Barmaid and ex-Birthday-Keeper"...

As a present to Melody, we're off on manoeuvres somewhere a long way
away, all day.

Oh hey! Keep *this* birthday!

Many happy returns, Melody.

Have the day off round the front of the bar, and the rest of us will buy
you drinks and pamper you a bit. I know someone who does a massage that
leaves you with every muscle tuned and fit, yet so relaxed that it's almost
like having taken a barrel of TS, if you'd like that?

Cheers!

OUCH! Hugs of sympathy and wishes for a quick merger
of chip and rest of bone.

Happy Birthday, Melody! Shall I help in the bar or
walk the were-pups so you can put your feet up and
relax?

Thank you Jackie, a lovely offer but the *lady* werepups are
not in a state to go walkies at the moment *grin* Hudson however,
is VERY lively!!

Please feel free to help behind the bar and have a few drinks to
keep you going Wink

Very Many Happies Melody, and may your chipped bone not impact your
celebrations too much...
Remember, TS, taken in regular doses, is widely recognised as an anasthetic.
(Well, I usually don't feel any pain.)

Au Res.,

Well, things may have got a little out of hand, but we're back now, and
Project Poseidon is locked away in its bunker again. Hope nobody's
suffered any cracked beams, ornaments knocked off shelves, collapsed
roofs, that sort of thing...

Oh, that was *you*, was it? At least you had the grace to use a code-name
that relates to the Earthshaker Himself. And I don't call it avoiding the
BB to head for where she lives... lucky you missed the actual town by a
few miles.

Are you ok, Melody?

Some earwigs are better able to read finely-engraved brass calibration
dials than others. That device is _not_ approved for issue to the
troops, not even the ones who _can_ read.
