Wow. I'm nostalgiaing so hard it's almost painful.
Have a great day!

Yep, it's my 18th birthday today. -grins- I will be throwing a party in the Land of Birthdays atop the Faraway Tree*, and you are all invited. Attached you will find a portkey to take you, since I imagine not all of us live next to the Enchanted Wood.

Have a lovely piece of dark chocolate. Caffeine's good stuff if you only have 4 hours between missions.

With enough greens to last it for two years, and a pre-built stable.

You and my aunt must be on the same wavelength. -grins- I shall wear the earrings as I eat the ice cream with pride.
Please enjoy the party. You will find ice cream next to the cake, in a variety of flavors and shapes.

Thanks ever so much for the Bleepbeer! Hope you enjoy the party! There's cake on the table, ice cream of your choice next to it, and a wide assortment of Bleepproducts scattered about everywhere.

Here's a vial of water from the spring in Tuck Everlasting. This way, you'll have many more birthdays where that one came from!

-Takes vial carefully- Thank you very much. I'll have to think about when I want to stop aging. 25 sounds like a nice age, don't you think?
Please enjoy the party!

I fully agree with you. Plus, going by canon, it's a wishing cake, and the wishes really do come true! -is excited-

Once I started thinking about it I got the urge to reread them all. Sadly, my copies are halfway across the world at the moment. -sigh-
However, due to the miracles of the internet, at least one of the books may be found here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/6964122/Magic-Faraway-Tree-By-Enid-Blyton. I don't know if it's complete or not, but it seems to start at the beginning, which is always a good start.
Hope you enjoy the party and the book!

The Faraway Tree? I used to read those when I was little. Awesome books.
Anyway, birthday presents! Have a Random Artefact of Rassilon and a large cheesecake. -
There're great fun. by

Thank you very much! -eyes cheesecake greedily- There might not be any of that left for the guests, if we're not careful.
Enjoy the party. Cake (not the cheesecake) is on the table, with ice cream next to it, and other foodstuffs can be found scattered kind of everywhere. Drinks are also a bit scattered.

Wow, the Faraway Tree? I haven't read those books in about a decade. I approve.
As a birthday gift, I present you with a sack of pebbles, a sling customised especially for you, and a basket of Bleeprin-berries - delicious and good for you. :D -
Yay, you've heard of it! by

I was worried that it might be too obscure, hence the footnote.
Ooh, shiny! I assume the pebbles are meant to go in the sling? Seems like a waste of Bleeprin-berries to use them as ammunition. -eats one- Very tasty. Thank you!
