Happy birthday, what a wonderful message! Hope you get to enjoy a lovely evening too now!

Happy Birthday!
I received some fantastic news and my mum managed to send me a card to congratulate me, with a bottle of prosecco!
I appreciate it so much more that we're in lockdown.

Mine was last week and I really enjoyed it too! I had the day off work, DH and DD both made me fantastic homemade cards and DD made me a fabulous cake. I spoke to my parents and got lots of lovely messages. And then we watched Friday Night Dinner. What more could I ask for?!

I'm glad your birthday was good and may this be merely the half way mark of a long, happy and healthy life. Perhaps you could have another "official" one like the queen does later on in the year, too.

MrsMouse03 · 09/04/2020 20:25

I think an official Birthday sounds great!! I plan to celebrate with friends and family as soon as I can.

Happy Birthday op.
My was my DC’s birthday today, I was dreading it but we had a lovely day playing in the garden and FaceTime calls. DC soon forget that their party had been cancelled.

Happy Birthday to everyone that is celebrating in lockdown 🧁🎈😃

Happy birthday🥂. It’s my 30th today😁. Had a good day as well.

shineaflight · 09/04/2020 21:19

Happy birthday all of you.

Mine isn't for a few weeks but each year I get friends insisting I celebrate and have nights out when honestly some nice messages, my kids faces when I overexcitedly open their cards, good food, a bottle of something nice and my jamas are perfect.

I've got the perfect excuse this year all being well

TokyoSushi · 09/04/2020 21:20

I had a lockdown 40th recently, it was fab!

SoMuchToBits · 09/04/2020 21:22

Happy Birthday, MrsMouse, that sounds lovely! Smile

Flibbitygibbit · 09/04/2020 21:23

Mine was Tuesday . Banking it for when we are back to normality!😬

Muchtoomuchtodo · 09/04/2020 21:25

My birthday was last weekend,
I still had to work but came home to a lovely tea and cake baked by ds1.
It was the best birthday present ever and I had a really lovely day too.

Opened my presents with family over face time
Had a takeaway instead of meal out
Played an online game between households whilst face timing
Had far

JaceLancs · 09/04/2020 22:10

Far too many cocktails (that should have said)
