Yes, a happy birthday to Roa Wolfbane.

Happy Birthday... or should I say Happy BirthDay?

Don't let your fire die with age (like if you were getting really old... :)).

Happy Birthday Roa and Nazgul, have a good one! :)

It is Mr Felagund's buirthday today. Congratulations! :)

Happy birthday Nilp darling,

Lots of love and many happy returns,

Mummie:)

Today the Wargs smile proudly upon Nilpaurion Felagund! Praise be to he!

May this year be crazier than before! Happy Birthday, Nilp, have a good one!:)

Hey happy birthday Nilp! Hope it's a good one. :)

Hey schoolmate who taught me how to pronounce Gustave Flaubert's name, happy birthday. Twenty-two, is it not? A toast to that. Or if you still don't drink, I will do it for you. :D

Happy birthday Nilp. :)

Is this where I thank the Academy . . . ?

Hehe.

Aw, shucks, thanks, y'all. :)

Don't get too embarrassed, Nilp. If you lot don't greet me in a few months' time, I'll have your head Nilp, you being the only Downer I know.

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... :)

Many happy returns, fellow champion of Tar-Miriel...

Wonderful Nilp, birthday happy you have! Eat many cakes.

Happy Birthday Nilp!

Happy Birthday, Nilp!!

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. :p )

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

A star above my mast...
 

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.

Thanks, Mith, I'm glad you posted that.

Happy bd to Fordim, wherever he might be, tending his six babies... :D;)

Happy birthday, Master Hedgethistle!

Let's not forget to congratulate the most prominent birthday boys of the day -
Happy birthday, Bilbo and Frodo!!

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! :D 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! :)

Thanks for the well-wishes, and a happy Shire Hangover Day (the day after the Long-Expected Party) to everyone!

I have a great deal to be thankful for today, for those who don't know, the eye of Hurricane Ike passed a mere 15 miles to the east of my home, but no one was hurt, and there was almost no damage to our house or cars -- many even in our neighborhood did not fare so well. Our beloved willow tree, in our backyard, was nearly stripped bare, and several of its larger limbs were snapped off, but it will recover, in time. Also, in a city where 1/3 of the people are even today without power and some may not get it back on for a couple of weeks, our electricity was out for a mere 36 hours. God was very good to us, and I am grateful. I could receive no better birthday gift than this.

I am sorry that the Downs has not been higher on my priority list, but you are all in my thoughts often, and I wish the best for all of you today and every day!

I do love being the first, so, congrats Firefoot! Hope you have a great day. :D

Happy Birthday, Firefoot!

That's only because you Europeans are a day ahead of schedule! ;) Anyway, happy birthday Firefoot, have a good one! :)

I hope you had a good good birthday Thenamir even if one doesn't like to count them so much after certain stage... :rolleyes:

But Firefoot, you just keep on counting! Very-very happy birthday - and I hope to to be able to engage you in an RPG once again! (Or to see you in a WW-game...:))

I think us Americans are just a day behind. Since the prime meridian is like in Europe... In Greenwich, England to be precise!

Happy Birthday to all who have birthdays today by the way!

Diamond and Lal have the same birthday? Well, that calls for a rather important party! :D

Slainte Mhath!

Happy birthday to both Di and Lal~! Enjoy yourselves, dearies! :)

Dear lal and Di,

Have a happy birthday. If you don't, the government will impose heavy sanctions on you and force you to leave the country.
Yours,

The Government.

Have a great day! :D

Happy, happy birthday, Lal and Diamond! :)

Many happy returns to you both.... :D

Wow! All the best to the heroes of the day Lalwendë and Diamond!

As Eomer said: "that calls for a rather important party!" :cool:

A wonderful day for wonderful Downers. (Excluding Lal and Di - they're supposed to have a better day than all the rest of the wonderful Downers put together.)

Hey, I am The Government :D

I always feel embarrassed at getting birthday greetings though because I always forget everyone else's birthdays....:o

Okay, Lal, I'm going to embarrass you even more. Happy birthday! :D And to Di, too, certainly. :)
