Please indulge me – I’ve found this great fun.
But then my Birthday is on the First (didn’t realise Jon liked me so much he’d do a RR for me)
I usually spend the week before a birthday calming the black dog but this has cheered me up.
Mostly because it gives me the ideal opportunity to post a playlist for my own birthday – I do mixes for all my friends normally, so I don’t get a chance to be totally selfish – this is completely for me it’s 1.6 hours long – skip through freely.
I’m off in the morning, going to see the original 2tone graphic designers exhibition on Bank holiday Monday.. and see DJ’s playing Ska tracks on Margate beach (I think it’s still on) as long as the Mods and Rockers don’t revive their friendly meetings.

TA- I’ll probably be back on here before my birthday – but this is the first week off I’ve taken this year – so I should enjoy it.
Happy Birthday Shane, and many more!
(Isn’t Maki’s birthday around this time of year too?)
thank amy – don’t know Maki’s birth date – we used to do birthday posts on here – but it became too much – this is my answers – do a post for yourself.
I’d better sleep – my kids will wake excited in a few hours
Happy Birthday Shane.
Enjoy your break.
Have a lovely time off, Shane. See you shortly when we teleport ourselves over. I think our boys will get along famously!
Birthday Boy by the Residents didn’t upload.
Have a great time Shane. Happy, happy birthday.
Amy, my birthday is soonish but I’m waiting till next year to celebrate as then I’ll be hitting 50 and will need some serious cheering up!
Mrs Maki loves the artwork Shane!
And now to listen…
I hit 50 last October. It’s not really a biggie. I think it’s actually a bit uphill afterwards.
Or i should have said that thinks look up afterwards. You seem to get a lot more relaxed about things. But let us know what day it is so we can wish you a happy one.
I’m waiting for (almost) this time next year for my 40th. Perhaps we can have a joint virtual Spill party!
That would be great – even better if we could organise a social.
Well, we have a year to get planning…
It’s been a while since Mrs Maki and I were in London and I have a sister in Streatham. Just thinking out loud…
Well, Streatham is remarkably close to where I live in Brixton Hill… (I probably will have moved by next June, but I can’t imagine I’ll be a million miles from SW2.)
Anyway, where are my manners? It’s Shane’s party now! Happy birthday, o sane one!
Have a good one on Wednesday, Shane. I can’t get over that artwork – it’s absolutely fantastic!
How churlish of me. Forgot to wish you a very happy birthday.
Have a great Bithday, mate. Thanks for another year of fine tunes.
I hope you have a very happy birthday!!!
Happy Birthday geezer, as Shoey said, thanks for a great year inside the endless Shane record collection and here’s to many more playlists!
Happy Birthday, shane! Keep on grooving down that slightly odd but always fascinating and truthful road of yours.
