My daughter K is the queen of card giving. she manages to find the perfect one every time. one year I received a card with a gorgeous man on the front with the words "if this knocks on the door on your birthday..." then inside the card it finished with "tell him I'll be ready in a minute". Another year the card read "Chocolate is the answer" and inside, "who cares what the question is"
Happy b/day Andrew. Funny cards are always the best, sometimes I think the ruder is the funnier. Am back now in BNE, with absolutely a bare pantry. So I starve tonight - menu: beer, good quality Irish Scotch/Whisky and Irish Baileys Creme! Result: A throbbing headache, but who gives a shit???????? My present interest is that abattoir to be re-opened in Young for exported meat to the Middle East. Cheers Colin
I don't suppose you have the time to do that thing' where you stand in a card shop reading the funnies, laughing like a crazy person until you realize everyone's giving you sideways looks...or maybe that's just moi haha!
Congratulations Andrew, and many happy reruns!
ReplyDeleteThank you Peter. Most kind.
DeleteOnly close friends would take the trouble to find exactly the right sort of cards to suit your personality. You are fortunate, and 'we' are amused.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, so what are you really saying FC?
DeleteHello Andrew:
ReplyDeleteWe both wish you a joyous birthday and many, many happy returns.
I thank you JayLa. It was a week ago now, but you were clearly in a haze at the time whilst supporting the French economy.

Colin, I think I have heard you can sustain yourself on beer. Baileys is another food group, and Scotch is the medicine.
DeleteHa! I feel your pain - YOU got given the 'Queen of ...' CARD; but I got given the 'Queen of ...' MUG!!!
ReplyDeleteCherished by you Red, I'm sure.
DeleteHappy Birthday Andrew! A funny and witty card is always preferred over a tasteful one :)
ReplyDeleteClearly they are Kath. I did not scan and post the ordinary ones.
ReplyDeleteThese are great cards. The kind that are hard to find around these Okie parts.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday again.
Rubye, not a huge gay community in Okie?

ReplyDeleteGrace, I make the time to stand in a card shop and have a giggle.
