		<description>Love your writing - thank for providing the &#039;net with quality stuff! (wikipedia):

&quot;Happy Birthday to You,&quot; also known more simply as &quot;Happy Birthday,&quot; is a traditional song that is sung to celebrate the anniversary of a person&#039;s birth. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, &quot;Happy Birthday to You&quot; is the most popular song in the English language, followed by &quot;For He&#039;s a Jolly Good Fellow&quot; and &quot;Auld Lang Syne&quot;.

Many great returns on your day!

		<description>Happy Happy Birthday Chris! I also wished you Happy Birthday on Twitter with a suggestion, but I don&#039;t think you saw it! :0)

It was also my birthday (22nd), but I spent it in hospital - oh well, at least I had some company :-) hehe

Well - your celebration certainly beats my suggestion - its fantastic!! and I hope and pray that I win - hint hint! sorrrreeeee! *I think I need to subscribe again though!.

Your gifts are great! (I too got a gift for someone else on my birthday too - it is a great feeling!) .. the book sounds wonderful, as I have a strong goal to go problogging eventually, among other great things - thinking big!! (I lost my day job from illness - but i see this as a postive thing - a new and exciting world out there for me while I have it!! Very exciting stuff I must say :-)

I have been meaning to join Teaching Sells too, since I found out about them about a year ago, but the doors were closed! So I will cross my fingers!. When I came out of the hospital on the day of my birthday,  - well, this was the first chance I had to join ... so I jumped to the webpage and to my absolute shock and horror - they had just closed the doors - I couldn&#039;t believe it. Now i have to wait another year?  I need the knowledge now, and I have sent them an email beggingm pleading to let just one more person in, prettty please? Hoping to hear back from them. I was so disappointed - as have membership script installed, ready - and ideas for my virtual learning ideas (having been an academic lecturer in prior life before my illness)

oh woe is me. how is that for going on - and on &#039;our&#039; birthdays too!

I will work it out. I hope that you had a really special day. I think its wonderful that you involved everyone in your day - you give the presies. I will have a look at the children&#039;s fund too - see what I can do, if I read correctly. Just need to fix my laptop, which has now also decided to die on me - can i scream now!

But I am grateful for all that I have really. How old are you, may I ask?? hehe (I am nearing that big ol&#039; 40 mark - next year - eek! Perhaps we can celebrate together :-D
(I have been a big fan of yours for a long time now, but haven&#039;t really commented until now - and please don&#039;t think that I am s.. up, so I can win a spot in Teaaching Sells. I don&#039;t expect anything. Just love to write, too much. A trademark of mine I guess after having done a phd - keeping things short is the difficult part.

But I digress - hehe!

Happy Birthday again - and its great to see all of your followers, the well-wishers here too. Great job Chris!

Kind Regards
