But I'm pretty private about personal info. I don't flash it up on FB or anything else. Okay, that's pretty cool! Something I didn't expect!

I thought "hey, who shares my birthday" so I hovered over the image to see and the caption that came up said "happy birthday Lilyhoney". I thought it beyond strange, but my husband said it was from gmail or google+ account.

Happy birthday.

Then they most likely got your birthday at some point.

Hope you've enjoyed your travels - it looks like you've made another successful trip around the sun!

Back in late September/early October. In hindsight, I wish we had just disappeared up there and never came back.

Yes, another revolution around the sun is better than the alternative.
