Re: Birthdays
Happy 31st birthday to my nemesis, Mr McCurdie.
I didn't actually know he was on the forum until it was shown on the birthdays bit at the bottom!
Having said that, he has only done one post, so he has been a bit on the quiet side.

Really if I'd won that game, I would've almost certainly been in the finals.
Obviously I was never going to win the series, not in a million years against Kirk, but I still think I could've done a reasonable job there.
It's going to haunt me for the rest of my life is that blumming conundrum.

I expect Ian Dent's happy though.
It's cool though how the word blumming/blooming/bloomin' is coming back into popular use. I saw some of Never Mind the Buzzcocks the other day, and the guy from N-Dubz kept saying it all the time.

Re: Birthdays
Thank you, all.

Re; Alec's 'gift'. Sorry - I have no idea either - we talked of many things in Manchester and I've slept since then! But I'll FB him and find out!
I thought it quite appropiate that Howard picked upon the phrase 'Birthday Bash', especially following Marc's tongue-in-cheek comment about getting 'in before Charlie'. As Marc was posting on the spoiler thread on Dec 1st, I know what he's alluding to. It seems my dislike of Jon Gaunt was unworthy of posting, an opinion supported apparently by my lowly position on the popularity poll!! So thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday on here, on FB , by email and by text. I seem to have quite a lot of friends for someone who is apparently SUCH a waste of space!!
I’ve enjoyed getting to know so many new people and, almost without exception, you’re a great bunch. However, the exception is starting to get tiresome now and I really can’t be doing with being any sort of pawn for someone working through his insecurities (though the recurring excuse that crops up amongst forumites looking for explanations of a somewhat cocky manner is ‘immaturity’) So, I'm going to bow out for a while. I might come back, I might not (that’ll have the quote button being hit!) I hope to see some of you at Lincoln, but for now, I can’t be bothered with the churlishness. Everyone up for the Eggheads, you have my email address, I'll keep you posted.
Cheers and have a great Christmas and New Year

Re: Birthdays
25 December was originally a Pagan holiday known as the Feast of Saturn. In AD 354, Bishop Liberia of Rome, in an attempt to suppress Paganism, declared that this date was the birthday of Christ. It seems it did the trick.
p.s. I haven't checked, but I think Easter was a Pagan festival, too. lol

Re: Birthdays
Bit of a conspiracy theory. My sources say it's much more likely that the new traditions just melded with the old ones - the timing of the festival was never going to change, it just naturally evolved from the old pagan one into the current version - there's probably always been a midwinter festival, it naturally mirrors the fashion of celebration of the time.Alec Rivers wrote:25 December was originally a Pagan holiday known as the Feast of Saturn.

I admit I've come to this thread a month too late. Haven't really visited much of late but was just checking this thread out after reading Jason's latest Larsenesque post. Yeah, my understanding is that the Christian festival of Easter just supplanted an existing pagan festival, with the word deriving from 'Eastre', the goddess of Spring whose name comes from oestrus meaning the female fertility cycle. Easter is linked to the phases of the moon which is why it is a 'moveable feast', and along with Saturnalia, as Alex said, the pagan feast on 25th December was kept in the diary (but relabelled as Christian) to try and keep peace between them and the natives (though the bastards did fuck with dragons, turning them from symbols of fertility into symbols of evil that must be slayed by saintly Christian, killing in the name of God!) As for when Jesus was born, some say it was (September) 4 BC!! And proof comes in the lyrics of 'Jesus Christ Superstar'; in the words of the disciples to Jesus....
Why'd you choose such a backward time in such a strange land?
If you'd come today you could have reached a whole nation.
Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication.

I heard that people who argue with Tim Rice end up with their feet in concrete boots several fathoms beneath the ocean surface. He doesn't fuck about. That is his way.
