    Happy birthday dear Delia
    70 years young today,
    So much Canary memorabilia
    You´ve gathered up along the way,
    You´ve been there, as we have and seen it
    The highs and those awful low years,
    And those in the yellow and green kit
    Have given both joy and some tears,
    Who can ever forget in Munich
    That night of a certain van Goss,
    Or that day when our noble tunics
    Were limp, after that 0-6 loss,
    But right on cue, as if by order
    To celebrate threescore and ten,
    Paul Lambert, that Scottish marauder
    Has produced some Premier League men.

    <cheers>

    Wonderful birthday card, RBF, I think you should e-mail this to the club! I've always loved Delia even through the bad times :emoticon-0115-inlov<rose><rose><rose><rose><rose>

    Me too dave, we´ve certainly got more to thank her for, than the opposite.

    Great stuff, RBF.
    Delia (and Micheal) are among the best things to ever happen to our club. If they hadn't come along when they did, if they hadn't stuck by the Club, endlessly putting their hand in their pocket, well I dread to think.
    We owe them a debt we (supporters) can't ever repay.

    Happy Birthday, Delia.

    As a special birthday present, think the Queen should give Delia a Damehood. Got a nice ring to it,........Dame Delia, then next year the pope can make her a saint.
    Many happy returns Dame Delia, and many many more thanks for what you have done for our club.

    PS Dave, how about setting up a birthday tribute thread to Delia and then emailing it all over to the club. Think she might even join Not606?

    Many happy returns to her- I wish I could put it as poetically as RBF!

    Thinking about it, Maestro, what better tribute than the one we are posting on, let's all add our salutations and felicitations and lots of other big words that I don't know, then ask our very own Lord Byron, RBF, to forward it to 'her Majesty' at Carrow Road <cheers>

    Happy Birthday Delia! Quite simply Norwich's no.1 fan. You also taught me how to make great roast potatoes. That little shake of the saucepan to rough them up after you've par boiled them makes all the difference.
