Ugh. Excuse all the typos. :)
LOL I love it! "Queen kicked everybody's ass" indeed!!! Love the yoga pose pic as well tho it does make my back hurt a little just thinking about trying that ;)
Anyone doing anything special tomorrow? I'm thinking I need to get off my butt and try to get to Montreux next year!!
Hey , Rainbow I hope you you display your Freddie car decal with pride! Is it the classic fist raised to the sky posr? You should include a decal.saying "Honk If You Love Freddie" and see how many Freddie fans there are out there !
Your Hubby sounds great!
I just donated to Mercury Phoenix Trust in honour of our lovely Freddie. :-)
BTW I want to highlight that those on names be similar I am_NOT_ to be confused with FreddieDearie! Please do not confuse us!!!!!!!!! :-)
*though, not those and * our not on! Oh dear me! :-(
I'll try again
BTW I want to highlight that though our names be similar, I am _NOT_ to be confused with Freddie Dearie! Please do not confuse us !!!!!!!! :-)
FreddieDarling——that is a great idea to put “honk if...” on there. I’m still trying to find the one I saw on the back of a car..., would have been fun to connect somehow.
Amidds and FD——also donated to MOT thru purchase of the ballet /Queen DVD.
But, I’ll also have to make a point to read AIB after work or something.
Ohhhh Amidds-that would be so cool. you are speaking my language. I’d love to go there too!! I’ve bern trying to work it in to another trip I’m planning but probably won’t be in Sept. it sure if anything yet. Have a wish list for next year as I watch my days off allotment dwindle. Haaahaaa. I do think planning now for his 75th in 2021 might be a good goal for me. You never know.
I like the thought that we are going to bump in to fellow “threaders” at something (concert, convention, birthday, etc.) .... would be really great.
OMG I love the ideas for the songs for the clocks to play - brilliant! Great black and white photos - I have not seen any of those. Thanks for sharing! I especially love the one taken from down below Freddie.
Villiars2 - was that you? Miss you woman
Thor and Lee - sooooooo how was the sleep over? Pillow fights and cookie dough?
Happy Birthday Freddie!! Mwah Darling
Happy 73rd birthday Freddie from one of your many worldwide fans. You are the best!
A toast to Freddie! Thank you for enriching the world.
Happy Birthday.
For Freddie’s birthday I will be wearing one of my Freddie tee-shirts to work (underneath a blazer…the tee shirt isn’t exactly dress code). I’ll also wear my Mercury Phoenix Trust Freddie pin that I recently purchased. My after work plan is to TRY and make the “cheesy pastry things” from Peter Freestone’s Freddie cookbook. They look fairly simple, which is good, as I am definitely no Julia Child! Of course, I will have some Queen music playing in the background for inspiration!
Rainbow! That’s such a beautiful way to spend THE day. I love the Freddie-fashion-rule-breaking!!
All- oh my goodness!! If you haven’t made your way to Peters Ask Phoebe page yet. You may want to have Kleenex ready to watch the new love me like there’s no tomorrow. So deeply moving. I’m an emotional wreck. It’s absolutely beautifully done.

NQS - I agree. That photo angle was amazing!!!
OK JB, you warned us, I fully admit that. I still was not prepared. How touching! Of course, when my boss walked into my office while I'm all teary, I didn't know what to say lol! I'm a horrible liar so I'm sure my "allergies" excuse didn't go over well.
Just made my donation to MPT in honor of our Freddie today :) and I would've added my favorite FM bday pic here but it doesn't seem to be working so, just imaging the one with Freddie and his 2 loves: Jim and Garden Lodge. You know the one!! Happy Birthday Freddie darling!
