Birthday Buddies...
Kirsty from Killie has got Ricky Martin and Lemmy, while Angus in Skye has got Marvin Gaye and Keren from Bananarama! Who do you share your birthday with? That's the theme for tonight and it looks like it's going to be great fun. It's the contrasting 'birthday buddies' that are making us smile. Some great imaginary duets are possible by teaming them up. Maria Callas and Britney Spears for instance. 
I have got Prince Phillip and Judy Garland for mine but some people are way better off. If you were born on July 6th you could blow out the candles with 50 cent, Nancy Reagan, The Dalai Lama and Sly Stallone. Or what about those lucky souls born on 13th October. They get to celebrate with Margaret Thatcher, Marie Osmond, Nana Mouskouri and Lenny Bruce. What a swell party that would be...

As Maria says, if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing.

Apparently though, my mum's cat shares a birthday with Willie Nelson! That should be more to Brian's taste.
