Apart from the essentials I'm rubbish at remembering b'days, so why not create a thread to wish 'virtual' friends happy returns.

Happy birthday Greg66 for tomorrow, that bus pass is gonna save you a pretty packet :wink:

    Yeah, damn it! We demand recognition!

    But, y'know, we're capricorns and therefore very down-to-earth and rooted, so we're realistic and know full well that you heart Greg66 way more than you do us.

    We just can't compete.

    It's OK.

    Perhaps he thinks Greg looks better in lycra than you two- his eyesight is a little dodgy

    Aw, shucks.

    This is so true.

    I *do* know how to dress sexy. And dance sexy too! For money! :P
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

    Capricorns, schmapricrons. Aquarius, laydeez, is where it's at.

    Always has been, always will be.

    Capricorns have horns and are beloved by Devil worshippers.

    Aquarians carry water. Like a bottle cage. Or a waiter. BEAT THAT!

    My horrorscope said I'd meet a tall dark handsome stranger.

    ITB's a bit short though.

    Screw you water-boy!

    Capricorn is a sea-goat, dammit, that's cool. Not some mediocre water sommelier who couldn't make it through wine school.

    First sign of the Zodiac, Aries is the best!

    Its ruling planet is Mars, the Roman God of War also known as Ares. :shock:

    Aries is also a fire sign.

    CP owes me a tenner - he said that other Greg wouldn't see another birthday due to his advanced age and affection for "Tory MP" style auto-antics.

    I said he would but his posts would become increasingly random, shouty and mostly about the War.

    A sea-goat? Cool? A thing that's half goat and half fish. So, drags its rear end around on land and drowns in the sea (gills being in the front end of the fish) or floats on the surface like a ducky.

    Was it designed by a committee? :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

    See Mr. Aquarius could bring his bucket along when he meets Mr. Sea-goat, and drown the little b@stard in it. How much use is yer fishy tail now, Mr. Sea-goat? :twisted:

    Dude, you're just jealous because you got a sub-standard waiter.

    And no, it doesn't have a fishy tail. but it does have stabby horns and can survive in water. Your adam sandler character can bring it the water, unless he has other skills? Oh no, that's it.

    Wiki says:
    Capricornus is one of the constellations of the zodiac; it is often called Capricorn, especially when referring to the corresponding astrological sign. Its name is Latin for "horned male goat" or "goat horn", and it is commonly represented in the form of a sea-goat: a mythical creature that is half goat, half fish.

    Like this one:

    Now I'm no vet (although I read the internet a lot), but I'm pretty sure that the back end of that sea-goat looks, ummm, fishy. And definitely not, ummm goaty. :P

    OK the little goat-man doing the goat is one thing.

    But what the hell is that! Look like a woman-bent-over-a-motorcycle-with-horns-sticking-out-of-the-handlebars like something Ghost Rider would ride.
