Very subtle. Happy 70th bithday, I presume, John.

Happy Birthday, John, and many more.
With your arrival all those years ago, the war in Europe had just come to a conclusion -- surely there is a connection between these two great events! Best wishes for good health.
Oh my you're soooo young, John! Happy Birthday indeed. Mine was on May 10th of an earlier year in the war. Newspapers were literally full of the war news.
Happy Birthday John! Hope you have had a wonderful day.
Happy birthday to my favourite blogger!
