    Happy Birthday, JerryBaldy!

    Well, well, well, someone has a birthday today! Happy Birthday, Jerry! Here's looking at you!

    And here's a birthday poem for you:

    Big Miracle

    The sky is big tonight,
    like the large dark eye
    of a horse looking at you
    through the scrim of it's mane
    a considering look
    that could mean anything,
    or nothing
    and you can see yourself replicated in it
    over and over and over,
    a million times over,
    small and shining
    and not entirely insignificant

    Late to my own party. Thank you Qim for the poem, I love it and for the heads up to come here and find this thread or I never would have.

    Thank you Mona amon, Calidore, Jack, Cacian and Gilliatt Gurgle for your kind wishes.

    Jack, only onions should be pickled with the slight exception of eggs which should be dropped into a bag of salted crisps. Pickled onions should be eaten at Christmas when they temporarily seem a good idea and the egg in the crisps should be eaten seated at a bar when you have drank enough bitter for that to seem a good idea.

    Thanks again posters and Qim, I hope to see your poem in the poetry section.

    49 BTW. Forty bloody nine.

    For those who believe,
    no explanation is necessary.
    For those who do not,
    none will suffice.

    Happy Birthday Jerry.

    Pickled eggs - excellent with chips, and for annoying/ disgusting others - like Pot Noodles.

    Pickles for when you're getting pickled. How very British. And forty bloody nine? Best age ever-when your 65. Hope it was a good one, Jerry.
