Party time again!

Hi folks! *waves*
Time is flying by, isn't it? It's that time of a year again - I'm getting older. In this case, I'm turning 55 on October 9, which used to be an important thing, back under the old regime. Women could retire at the age of 55 back then. So I've decided to ignore all that fantastic headway we've supposedly made towards democracy in the last two decades and enter my virtual retirement, blithley overlooking the fact that I'll have to work another 7 or 8 or only God knows how many years.
So, let's party! Last years virtual birthday party yielded 742 comments on 6 pages, which won't be easy to top, but we're good, aren't we? WE CAN DO IT! So, let's give it a try! In the recent years, it has always been great fun, so let's have fun again!
You're all cordially invited to help yourself to a slice of virtual Dobos Cake recipe - it's my absolute favourite, although I never managed to get it as good as my Garnny used to.
Cheers!
Note: The party will be closed on October 9, at midnight, sharp. Join us and have fun!

Date: 2011-10-04 11:10 pm (UTC)(and I certainly agree that not going over in important if the timetables there are done anything like Lancaster's were when I was an undergrad - lectures started at the top of the hour for 50mins so that there was time to get to the next one)
I can see why it is so scary - but I think you'll do well because you are being organised and thinking about it all in advance!
Yumm chocolate! :)
I have nice Thorntons chocolates to share! :)
