Thanks again, everyone.
It may be temporary, but all the YouTube clips have disappeared from my screen. They were fine this morning---anyone else having problems?

Har-har!

What Peepsie is referring to is the fact that my birthday offering to Roger is an adaptation of a cartoon I did for a 'Caption Competition' last week, on a theme of 'Pirates' in another forum populated by crazy cartoonists. No-one got it, and I got 'null points' in the judging, so I thought it probably had a more natural home here, hence it's appearance, and Peepsie's sarcasm.  :P

It had nothing to do with me not being arsed to bake a cake, and I did make several alterations to it, at no inconsiderable cost to my time.

Hope you won the golf, Roger, and you know I was only jesting about your cartoon piracy, unlike your dear wife.
I apologise, in advance.

I DID win the golf today---even though Fyodor had an amazing eagle two at one hole. (Non-golfers, that's when...well, it's not really worth explaining).
Loved the cartoon, mate.

Sorry I didn't go to any effort this year. When I saw Bill's post at 50s into the day I lost my will to live.
People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

Tarks, Thanks for explaining Peepsie's sour note. If you didn't get any benefit from its first outing, you should have the right to recycle it. You did amend it for Roger and it was good.
Diane, don't give in. You produce fantastic work for us all. I'm just trying to make an effort (and I did have spare time as I've been bored at this NATO meeting) and was able to prepare for the important event. I was going to post after my midnight, but then thought that that would not look well when time-stamped on the forum.

Back to my birthday, if you don't mind....
I'm currently wearing a 19th Century Native American  pipestone necklace from Minnesota and looking at  book called "Songs of Thule", which was published by the Historical Collection of the British Library and was written by my great grandfather, Laurence James Nicolson. How cool is that?
Actually, I've just had to take the necklace off. It's bloody heavy.

So sorry. I thought "VIP" was a member I had never heard of.

Happy Birthday, Roger!

Thanks, Feather and Lucy.
Lucy, when do you and Peeps leave and how long will you be away? Have a great time, anyway!
