Fifty years ago today: also a Sunday.
Marc Bolan and T. Rex were number one.
And I was born.
Cakes are somewhere in your kitchen: enjoy.
Blogging will resume tomorrow.

Your daily blog elucidates so much, occasionally alarms but mostly reassures me that there is still a voice of reason and compassion in the world. Thank you.
Enjoy the day,
Many Happy Returns

Happy Birthday DAG – I’d like to echo all the comments here thanking you for your herculean efforts in producing such high quality posts seven days a week. Rarely was a day off so richly deserved.

Happy 50th, David!
Many happy returns David. Enjoy the day and your cake.
Only 50- so much more to come
Work resumes tomorrow .
We all need the occasional day off – some people think we have had a year of days off
Happy Birthday David, hope there is cake somewhere for you too. :)
Happy Birthday. Keep up the good work!
Well! Shocked, shocked that you are taking a day off – but have a happy birthday and many happy returns, and thank you for your blogs.
Happy 50th birthday.
Have a good one!
Happy birthday, you spring chicken with a wise head! I thank you for your brilliant and elucidating posts, as everybody else here is doing. Lucy from Bristol (and no, I’m not out on the demonstrations against the new policing bill though it merits demonstration against it).
Many Happies!
Thank you for all the insightful blogs and posts.
Happy Birthday. Wouldn’t mind being fifty today, or forty for that matter.
Happy Birthday! I hope you have many healthy and fulfilling returns of the day.
Best wishes for very happy birthday. Thank you for your excellent clear writing about legal matters and FT video.
Back to work tomorrow though, we all hope!
Tanti Auguri!
Hope you had a fantastic day, David.
I really value your insights.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear David
Happy birthday to you!
Happy Birthday and welcome to the half century club!
We would all want to wish DAG a most happy birthday.
But.
Article 4 of The Limitations and Restrictions on the Offering of Birthday Wishes (Coronavirus) Regulations 2020, which slipped through unnoticed, I think, just before Christmas makes it an offence to wish anyone a happy birthday who knowingly or unknowingly causes “annoyance” or “nuisance” to a Crown servant (as technically defined elsewhere) by reason of analysis of government law or policy as it applies to Brexit, Coronavirus, asylum, flags…The regulations are very widely drawn and may indeed, some jurists consider, be without limit.
We may all be vulnerable.
Happy birthday, David, and many happy returns.
Thank you for your blog, which is performing a valuable public service.
Tantissimi auguri, caro David, da Ascoli Piceno nella Marche! And thank you so much for your brilliant work.
Happy Birthday, thank you for your posts, most enlightening.
James.
Happy birthday, and many more to come. Please keep posting your excellent observations.
Alles Gute zum Geburtstag! Repose-toi bien!
Many happy returns. A well deserved break. Enjoy.
Happy birthday, David!
Many happy returns!
Thanks for all the education.
You’re providing a public service & we really appreciate it.
Happy birthday and all good wishes. Many thanks for your very interesting blog posts.
Happy Birthday. Marc Bolan was awesome. I remember hearing about the crash that killed him, when it happened. I always liked my brothers music.
I am always reading your emails. Your blogs.Thank you.
Happy Birthday, DAG.
Marc Bolan, fifty years? Good grief!
Happy birthday young man.
Glad you have had a day of cake-eating, instead of feeding the ever-hungry readers of your wonderful blog.
You’ve made me feel very old, however, in your remark concerning Marc Bolan. Perhaps I could do with fewer birthdays.
Oh, and – Happy birthday! I hope the day was a good one for you.
Heppy Birthday Mr G – hope you enjoy the day!
Congratulations and I hope it is a happy day.
Happy Birthday David, and many more of them!
Feliz aniversário!
Happy Birthday, dear fellow.
Happy Birthday, and thank you for your witty (sometimes understandably cynical) and knowledgeable analyses!
Happy birthday David. I hope you have a great day free of anything irksome.
Happy birthday dear friend!!!! All the best!!!
A very happy birthday … and many, many more.
Thank you for your excellent blog.
Happy Birthday David
Keep speaking truth unto power, but have a well-earned day off and enjoy some cake.
A very happy birthday and many happy returns.
Hope you had a fine day qnd the pm has’nt made iff with the cake.
Many Happy Returns. I hope you have had or are having a great day.
Hope you had a great day. Just don’t try and take the cake into the EU as it contains dairy products.
Sonntagskinder sind Glückskinder! Happy Birthday! (It’s a German saying, meaning that Sunday’s children are happy/lucky children)
Hope you have enjoyed your birthday DAG. Absolutely love your blog and other writings (including Tweets!). Keep them coming!
Belated Happy Birthday! 🎉🥂🍾
Have a wonderful day – enjoy your birthday!
Happy Birthday. I’ve always enjoyed birthdays more when they fall the same day of the week as the day I was born. But to have both same day and 50 is terrific.
Hope you enjoyed your birthday David and didn’t allow anyone to blow the candles out? I recall many fond birthdays when that action wasn’t always a matter of life and death!
Regards
Many belated Happy Returns.
Happy Birthday David and many repeats.
I hugely admire your work.
All the best for your future!
As others have previously averred, happy (belated) birthday.
