I always feel that there is no point in being disappointed that people do not remember your birthday, if you do not remind them.
Internet, today is my 40th birthday. How would you feel about putting a happy birthday in the comment box?
Go on, make my day.
Praxis says
Let me be the first to congratulate you!
(I was a colleague of Waffle’s till last year and can vouch that she remains eternally youthful – only the insane/myopic/both could possibly confuse her for her daughter’s grandmother or be tempted to give their seat up for her on a bus.)
Many happy returns, Waffle, and I hope to see you very soon!
Eimear says
Happy birthday!
acqua says
All the best!
We are exactly two weeks apart – and (not to forget!) one year.
Pauline says
Happy Birthday from Australia! I’ll be joining the same special birthday club in a few months. Scary.
Cindy says
Happy Birthday!!!
Charlotte says
Happy happy! I used to say all my favourite bloggers were 38. Now they are all 40, like me.
Blythe says
I hope your day involves chocolate cake, sleeping late, and time to read a good book. Or at least the chocolate cake. You can save the rest for when The Princess has become prime minister.
Enjoy!

HAPPY HAPPY Birthday! I am 40 years and 7 months old, and after the initial shock of OMG I AM AN ADULT NOW, the last month has been significantly easier… In all honesty, I find it to be a lovely number and a fantastic excuse for a big party with loads of champagne. Emphasis on the “loads of champagne”. Bon anniversaire! J.
Lesley says
Happy Birthday! (I was pregnant for my fortieth so no champagne – but it’ s a good age to be, I feel)
katie says
Happy birthday, it’s not that bad from here onwards, honest!
Beth Fish says
Happy Birthday!
islaygirl says

MsPrufrock says
I’m sure you won’t suffer from lack of birthday wishes.
Happy birthday! I’ll resist the urge to say that 40 is the “new” whatever. It’s always in flux, so I don’t even know anyway. Is it the new 20? 15?
daddy'slittledemons says
the new 22, I think.
Only months away myself. A horrifying prospect. Hope you enjoyed the day
undercovercookie says
Have a very Happy Birthday my dear.
town mouse says
Happy birthday. I’m only 10 days away from the same fate, and only yesterday someone asked if a (perfectly nice and spry but completely white haired) man in his sixties was my other half.
angelfeet says
Ooops, a day late – Happy birthday!
Jeannette says
Happy Birthday! Have been 40 for 2 years now, it is much better than 30 so enjoy!
cha0tic says
Happy Birthday! Welcome to the over 40s club (only just in your case. A few in mine)
viviane says
Happy birthday ! I do not like to get older either, but still I admit to feel bad when people forget about my birthday. Anyway, I’ll turn 50 next year (shhh !), so you are very much younger than I am, which makes you hardly a big girl !
Love to read you, and thank you for making me discover new authors.
Bonne continuation !
Dot says
Better late than never – happy birthday for yesterday!
Catherine says
A little late, but Happy Birthday!
Michael says
40 is considerably better than the alternative.
thaleia says
Happiest of birthday weeks to you. Birthdays ending in an 0 should always last at least a week!
Nynke says
Aw! It’s too late but Many Happy Returns all the same! Hope you had a great day!
Yvonne says
Happy Birthday and welcome to the club.
sorry its late but I did think of you on your birthday!
hope we’ll catch up soon
StarCorner says
Happy Birthday even though it is two days late. On the day of your birthday I was in London with my friend celebrating her birthday on that day so you are in good company! Hope you had a fantastic day.
belgianwaffle says
Can I say that I love each and every one of you? And that’s very tiring when you reach my age, I can tell you.
LondonMom says
Am I too late with birthday greetings? Hope you had a good one!
Norah says
Happy birthday Waffle.
I am rubbish at commenting but I have you on bloglines and read every word there. You’re still one of my top favourite blogs.

eva says
A belated happy birthday to you, dear Waffle. I spent a week away from t’internet on a skiing holiday and thought of you on the tenth! Enjoy the journey! – And it’s the same with me as with Norah… you’re on top of my ‘Blogs’nFun’ bookmark list!
LetterB says
Oh drat! 5 days late!
Happy, happy, happy birthday (belated) to one of my favorite authors out there. xo!
geepeemum says
Oops. 6 days late. Happy Birthday!
CAD says
8 days late and counting, but that’s the fun of 40 – the celebrations can last most of the year. 41 on the other hand is quite a drag. Happy Birthday Mrs W and keep on enjoying
