I'll raise a glass in the direction of New England too....in my case , allowing for the Great Circle route perhaps a tad North of West.

Happy Birthday Carl, & may God bless all who sail in convoy with you.

Warm wishes and a glass raised in a somewhat different direction to converge in New England from here. Happy Birthday Carl.

Thanks, lads. It means a lot.

2012 was one of my worst years on record, and, if early results are any indication, 2013 is not shaping up to be any better -- so the good cheer is most welcome.

I'm glad Tom remembered the Great Circle route to New England, and the London Underground's sesquicentennial was not lost on me either. I'm wearing my "Tube" tie today in honour of it.

Well a belated Happy Birthday to you Carl! I was out of town on your day so i'm just now catching up with things around here. I'm also proud to share your birthday month with you -the 2nd was my 60th!- and I'm with you about 2012 I was glad to see it pass.

2013 I trust will be better for both of us.

Best wishes my friend!

B&B and WS, thanks too for the warm wishes. Lateness does not matter; it's the thought that counts. We are not all online "24x7", and I am sometimes envious of those who are offline for extended periods of time with nothing but personal interactions in physical ("meat") space to contend with.

Here's hoping that 2013 will be better for all involved!

Indeed! Happy birthday Al! Keep those tunes coming and the organs running.

We'll leave the blower on for you.

And here are well wishes for a great day and lots of future fiddling with ear pleasing noisemakers from this quarter.
