Happy Birthday! Couldn't find one with 40 on it :)

Aw shux thanks Iolanthe.

Glad you couldn't find one with 40 on it. Maybe if it's not written down, it's not happening!
(Actually I'm perfectly fine with this milestone, embrace what you can't change and all that.)

I just realised, you're only 18 months older than my son! I'm old enough to be your mother. Behave now :twisted:

I wasn't scared, but then your eyes glowed red. So yes Mum, I'm off to clean my room now!

That's the spirit, lad. Wallace would be proud of you. Now run along and play while I get on with some work. :D

Happy b-day, Shaun!

40's not so bad. Other than needing bifocals shortly thereafter. :mrgreen:

Happy Birthday, Shaun! :biggrin:

Glad Ananda got in there with asking how old you were before midnight the other day!
And glad Iolanthe (your adopted internet-mother?) got the right cake for you.

Happy Birthday, Shaun!!!!

I baked a cake for my favorite sheep. Instead of a 40, it has a 4. ;)

Or, if you prefer, here are some cupcakes. :D

Aren't they? That's why I couldn't resist linking them, even after I'd found the cake. :biggrin:

Thanks for all the Birthday wishes guys!

Ali, unfortunately I think I'm heading into bi-focal territory already :(
MsMary, the cakes are absolutely gorgeous thank-you AND you got my mental age right in the first one.

Ok, off to work to celebrate the big day.
Hmm... something not right about that sentence.

Those cupcakes are cute, too! But I'd have better luck recreating the ones MsMary found. I can work with mini marshmallows. Icing in a pastry tube? Not so much. :lol:

Yeah, but the icing ones look yummier.

All so cute!
