Happy Birthday!

May the next decade in your life be one long Indian summer

Dear Hans!

Happy birthday to you! It so happens we are exactly 30 years apart in age, nevertheless you are an agile athlete intellectually. May the next ten years be one long and warm Indian summer for you. Best wishes from Denmark!

Hans and Ingeborg in Canada
Dear Kim,
it was a surprise to find our own photo taken in Canada on this birthday greeting! Thank you very much for everything. We do hope your birthday will go on as it began this morning. We'll have a friend (Michael Martin, I told you, the desert photographer) and his girlfriend with us this evening for dinner.
Kind regards, --Schnobby (talk) 11:20, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Dear Hans and Ingeborg,
Well, I was looking through your recent uploads (to get some inspiration, as I was not prepared), and when I saw a photo named "Indian Summer" it seemed well suited on the occasion, although you were familiar with it already.
It is always interesting to see how people really look, by the way. Actually you two have an appearance quite close to the picture I had in my head, except that Hans did not have a moustache in my imaginary view . I hope you had a nice birthday dinner this evening with Michael Martin and his girlfriend. Kind regards, Kim --Slaunger (talk) 20:49, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kim, we hope you had such a pleasant evening as we had. Of course it was a little work in the kitchen - but our guests were very happy with the dinner (aperitif, pumpkin soup, salad with garlic prawns, braised beef and sage spaghetti, almond ice) and we talked about photography and cameras, the new trips of Michael (North Pole, South Pole, Greenland, Alaska...) and other things of interest. Thank you for wishing Hans a long and warm Indian Summer (as he had a heart attack two years ago). His moustache grew on our first journey to France (1969) and his mother didn't like it - but... it was black, but now it's white like our hair. So time goes by. Happy new decade!
