Have a great day, Joan! My birthday last month went by without comment but, you know, that doesn't take away from yours. Have a great day, Joan! I mean, I wasn't really expecting people to remember my birthday and I didn't cry or anything when it wasn't celebrated on here but enough of that! Have a great day, Joan! I thought maybe the odd private message on June 23rd might have turned up but I'm not going to harp on about this. Have a great day, Joan! You know, I've been on this site since it began, twelve years ago, and you'd have thought that SOMEONE might have taken a few minutes to wish me well on my special day but, as I said, I'm not going to harp on about it. Only joking.
Joan, have a great day---after everything you've been through, you richly deserve it.

We didn't forget, we, along with Jennifer Aniston all went out for drinks and a game of golf - the "Happy Birthday Roger" cake was yummy. Darn, we must have forgot to inivite you.

I blame the administrators of this forum, for not fixing the calendar.

Not much has gone right since Mince took over.

Happy Birthday, Joan. Glad you enjoyed our FB posts while we were out in Thailand, The Philippines and Borneo recently. They will have to serve as your "present". :-)

Belated Happy Birthday Joan.

I blame the fact that the forum tells you when birthdays are "upcoming", but as far as I can tell, not what date the birthday actually falls upon. Unless it does, and I just can't find it. Luckily Diane seems to have worked out a system, or has all birthdays carefully recorded, or something.

When the calendar worked, we could view it and see the actual dates for birthdays (assuming the birthday person had put their birthdate in their profile.  Now, the calendar is knackered and we can't view it.

How am I supposed to fix things if no one tells me there's a problem?

I have just spent four long hours looking through the php files for the calendar, checking the dates in the database, reprogramming parts of the calendar, altering the permissions and subfunctions, and generally lying my arse off, and now the calendar is fixed.

It had been wonky for at least six months, possibly since 1 Jan 2011.

You'd think Joan would show an interest in this thread...  ..0

Wait until she posts in this topic, and then tell her we meant another Joan.
