What about sheep playing tennis... on a cake!

Did you make that? Or find it in a web search?

Pretty amazing, huh?

Except it looks like the sheep is falling on his face with a tennis racket, not exactly playing.

I don't know where Shaun gets all his sheep pics from. But it's a nice birthday cake.

Psst, MsMary -- Shaun's a she sheep.

I meant to write "her" did I write "his"?

I blame it on not being awake yet. I posted pre-coffee.

I made it of course! Nothing less for my beloved Watcher pals. Of course, customs wouldn't let me post it to the US so I had to eat it all myself.

No but really.... I stumbled on it during a google search and thought, 'No way!' (source: cakecentral.com).

I think he/she's just slid toward the net in an awesome attempt to return a drop shot and is merely recovering for a moment.

I often confuse my own gender, name, species etc when I haven't had coffee so I completely understand!
Nonetheless, thank-you for pointing out my Eweness Ali.

i need to find the Clown head birthday cake julie made for me. had red frosting so it looked like the clown heads were still bleeding.

Okay, that cracked me the heck up!

My daughter is 35 today. May I borrow the cake, Shaun, as she loves StS. She stayed over last night but goes home again today. My son will be 37 on Sunday. Where did the time go?

Why of course you can Iolanthe. Although MsMary tells me she was pretty hungry, so there may not be much left. Perhaps you should give her this one....



Tell her happy birthday from Down Under and Happy Birthday to your son on Sunday!

Thank you so much Shaun, and Gromit as well! She will love it. I don't think we shall eat it all but we are very willing to share

Wow.

Me thinks StevieG's wife (who really is a fabulous baker) may have some competition.

The things people do with fondant....

Always happy to help, Shaun.

ali (who avoids coffee 'til she gets to work, in the irrational belief that a numb commute is less painful)

Many belated congratulations to everyone who I wasn't present to congratulate till now - Iolanthe's daughter, MsMary, Cambo, Deer, Lord Foul, Menolly and all the others.

Much appreciated.

For some reason, I can never keep your age straight, Xar...
Here's hoping I got the year right this time.

I don't need no arms around me
And I dont need no drugs to calm me.
I have seen the writing on the wall....

The number one song in the US on your day of birth was...
Another Brick in the Wall ~ Pink Floyd

Happy Birthday!

Thank you, Eff. It was my son's four days after my daughter's (almost two years difference) so I'll take that for both.

Happy b-day, Xar!

Happy birthday, Xar!
