Who has a birthday on boxing day?

[polarbert]

my first new thread for a while i think.


who else besides me has their birthday on the second worst day of the year to have a birthday on, boxing day?


i only call it that because its so damnned close to christmas, everyone doesnt bother to get you anything, or its a birthday and christmas present, and because its the holidays you dont get happy birthdays from anyone at work. and also going out costs more because its christmas time.


i just dont get the feeling that my birthday is special, because its the day after christmas, everyone is still celebrating that, and they dont really give all their attention to me, which is the way it should be on my birthday.


so i ask you all to think of me, Robert, this boxing day, i will be 20

and if anybody remembers and posts on here congratulating me, i will buy you a pint


i am actually going to be spending christmas on a farm (joy!) so wont have internet, but will search for my name when i get back! not that i expect anyone to post as it would be a complete waste of time

My sister's is on Boxing day and my sister-in-law's is on December 31. My sister gets an extra present on Christmas day and my sister-in-law gets an extra drink...

MIne is on the 26th. I will be 19.
The good thing about it is that when you think the presents are over, you get some the day after when everyone else has nothing

My birthday is on the 1st June and its not 'special' either and I 'dont get attention' either.

Get over it you big girls blouse.

It's a real pain buying presents for people that have birthdays close to Xmas, my other half's b/day is the 19th, and I am struggling to get him to lots of stuff, especially when he doesn't know what kinda stuff he wants! (apart from a shaver that is!)

mine is on the 1st January - in fact one of the first bouncing babes born in UK - was even in the papers! well mum and a bundle of me!

- usually most of the world celebrate it - so cant complain.

No birthday on boxing day, though I was at school with a girl who had hers on Christmas day.

Birthdays aren't that special as you get older anyway. The last birthday I can recall really having a party or anything for was my 18th, when me, some friends and my dad went to Quasar at the metrocentre, then back to my friend's pub for first legal drinks. Can't remember what I did for my 19th, 20th was back to the metro centre the day before for a general wander round.

Then my 21st was spent in utter pain, having had my son 4 days before and only coming out of hospital the day before, so I had stiches where a needle should never go, sore boobs, and no inclination to drink! The day was spent trying to realise that yes, that was a baby in the middle of the living room, and having my piles examined by the midwife, followed by a chinese with Wedg1e and his meJulie, and DNs parents, then a trip to BigW for a breast pump, then an hour at my Grandparents....

Roll on my 22nd... at least I'm not pregnant, so baby-sitter willing, I can redo my 21st

its mine tomorrow and my dads what better present could he have asked for

Sister is on Christmas Eve, I'm on New Year's Eve....I definitely have the best deal!
