The PA Happy Birthday Thread

I figured he was either on holiday or had a computer kack.

Looks like he hasn't posted since May 8.

On Tuesday, it was Jared's birthday. Jared Butcher lives in the lovely county of Herefordshire, a place where cows are cows, proud of it, and humanity comes a very distant second in terms of importance. Jared was 54 on Tuesday. He is incredibly knowledgeable about our genre and, indeed, went orf to see the resurrected Karnataka, a band not too far from the Lazland parish, as a treat. Lucky fellow! Jared lists his interests as historical heritage, world cinema (this is code for watching a load of old French luvvies shagging themselves silly in the name of nouveau art), classical, metal, and rock moosic. Jared is employed as a Council Reablement worker, which is modern corporate bollocks code for a carer - he deserves our gratitude as one of the many who put themselves in the frontline during that bloody awful lurgy period.

And so to JD. It is JD's birthday today. Happy birthday, my dear old chap, and old is absolutely the operative word here, because JD Dinsdale popped out of Mummy's private parts an incredible 64 years ago today. Very excitingly, JD is an entrepreneur, you know, one of those chaps who does business things, makes piles of bunce, and no doubt waxes lyrical about it at the 19th hole of the local golf club.

And, in an exclusive for the PA Happy Birthday Thread (It's not even on the world's finest website, www.lazland.org he says in yet another shameless self-promotion exercise) you too can now enjoy JD's efforts. Take a look at this; https://www.whitepinemedia.ca/ Now, this is culture at its highest level. It's even got Latin on it, so probably only those lovely German Baldies will be able to understand a bleeding word of it, but that doesn't stop us admiring it, oh no!

In fact, JD did very kindly send me a calendar a wee while back, and his photography on it was stunning.

So, this lovely, award winning thread (voted Most Annoying Thread In The World 2020 by the German School of Philosophy) wishes our very good friends HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Thanks for your support, chaps, and, indeed, I send all of my lovely friends here on PA my love and thanks for supporting my new website, even if I haven't featured you on this thread. If you want in, you are going to have to tell me it is your birthday 

Richard, my 60th will be something special, and only two and a half years to go, because that will be the glorious day I am freed from the shackles of the department I so lovingly serve.
