Happy birthday! Even though you are almost 50 at least you were born when Tolkien was still alive so take some comfort in that you can say you and Tolkien were contemporaries.

Happy end of one decade and beginning of another ?. We don’t need numbers here anyway unless it’s an ISBN !
Have a great day when it happens... if you want to acknowledge it ??

Happy Birthday! I am interested to see the new books you'll receive for this occasion...

Happy birthday!

Based on prior experience, probably none as they are all afraid I already have everything. But I may shop a bit for myself ?

I've often thought that myself! If only little toddler me had thought to write him a letter at the time...

Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday Jeremy ! ;) enjoy your second half-century !

Wishing you a splendid birthday, Urulókë! Enjoy it to the fullest!

Happy 50th Urulókë.

Congrats. I feel comforted knowing you are only a month or so younger than me! For some reason I thought you were 10 years younger but turns out you are ancient, too!

No Stu that is me turned 40 in April.

Happy Birthday Jeremy. Hope you have a great day, and remember, 50 is the new 40 and 40 is the new 21...
