Quite fun to read these excavated birthdays! There may be not many reactions but if there are more like me, there is a silent crowd having fun reading this. Keep them coming! Thanks!

You’re more than welcome. Hopefully, you had as much fun as a country without any bloody boozers open can provide for.

Today, we wish Alles Gute Zum Guburtstag, or as Friede and Jean would no doubt say, Happy Birthday, to Lars, who is a donkey who robs a bank, apparently. This is not a surprise to some who surf the intertit, as this link makes perfectly clear; Donkey Robs Bank, Leads Police on Chase – MM Schreier It would seem that Lars is still up to his old tricks.

Lars blessed us with his presence for 5 months between 2007 and 2008 and provided us with 6 no doubt fabulous posts.


So, guten tag, Lars. Come back to the bosom of your prog family. You’re only 36, so it is clearly not too late for you.


Elsewhere in progland, the collab birthday desert continues. Quite clearly, April was a poor month for prog parent rumpy pumpy.

Today’s stellar hero is Hermieatuv, otherwise known to his loved ones as Herman T.

Herman hails from Bodø in Norway, so is probably enjoying himself in the cosy warmth of his Våningshus in the midst of 24 hour darkness and snowstorms.


Actually, Herman might well be a Borg, or a revolutionary. His signature reads; “Resistance is never futile - we shall rise up”. Utterly inspirational, and words which Mr Trumpalot surely must wish that he had exalted to his troops when leaving for political exile yesterday. Perhaps he did, and CNN couldn’t be bothered to report it.


Anyhoo, Herman is 28 today, and joined us in 2011 for two months. Alas, he never went to the trouble of sharing any more of his thoughts or beliefs, because he left us with zero posts. A loss to us all.


So, Gratulerer Med Dagen to you, my dear fellow. Come back. Captain 

Picard needs you! We all need you!


In other news, we have lots of Russian and Bulgarian birthdays as well today, which just goes to show the massive global reach of PA. No collabs, though, which is surely testament to a great deal of sexual slacking on the part of our parents.

Roger Dickinson - what a guy! (Clearly a Red Dwarf fan)

What a smegging shame he’s not around to see us celebrate his birthday!

Today’s Prog Archives birthday hero is Progrog, or otherwise known, somewhat cleverly, as Roger Dickinson.

Roger is 63 today, bless him, and hails from the UK. What part, we do not know, but with a Roger as first name, the smart money will be on a part of England.


Roger joined our beloved site in July 2006, and lasted a whole 2 years before his final visit to these shores. In that time, he managed to post once, although on what subject he gave us the benefit of his wisdom will remain unknown, given that our forum search engine is as much use as my dog.


His signature, though, was a blinder. “Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast”. Very wise words, I am sure you will all agree, and, for my part, leads to a very large sense of disappointment he didn’t stick around for longer.


So to paraphrase The Pythons, Welease Woger. Come back, sir! We need poets such as you.


In other birthday news, today is the 64th birthday of one Guy Manning, a damned good musician, and contributor in these parts for a number of years. All the best, Guy.

Turns one a bit loopy, or looking for a new thrill, no matter how small, or how sad.


So, this evening, I had an idea. Why not start a new thread, Mr Laz, I asked myself? And, verily, I replied, what a damned good idea. But make it silly. Make it fun.

Thus was born the birthday thread. Every day, or when I can be arsed, I will pick out a birthday boy or girl from the forum page at random, wish them happy birthday, and comment a little bit on them. The catch? It will be people who none of us have ever heard of. Silly, fun, but hopefully diverting nonsense.


So, first, please wish Abominog a very happy birthday. Mr Andreas Boesch is 60 today. Many happy returns, sir! Andreas has been a member here since June 2005, which makes many of us seem like slackers, but all is not as straightforward as that. For Mr Abominog actually last visited the site in May 2020, but, believe it, or not, has not posted once in all that time. Diddly Squat. Nought. f**k all. So, in addition to hoping he is having a damned good day, or as far as one can in Lockdown Germany, I make a plea. Sir! Say something! Anything! Please!

On a slightly more serious note, Tuzvihar (Bartek), a rather better known collab, is 41 today. Best wishes to a fine contributor.


More tomorrow.


A fine idea my friend!! We need more of this on PA.......

Happy Birthday Andreas and Bartek!

(To be fair, it took me seven years before I posted in the forum. Some of us just like to lurk. If it were not for boredom overtaking me due to COVID-19 lockdowns, I’d likely still have nor posted in the forum!)
