There have been suggestions for a collective birthday card. I think its too difficult and too late to arrange sending a card in the post (and no guarantee that Simon will actually get it).

I've had an idea that we could put together an image with our names on it, which I could then send to the writers on twitter with a message like "Happy Birthday Simon from some of your fans". I've thrown together an example of my idea below to see if people like it. If anyone has any better ideas, please feel free to post your suggestions here (but make it quick!)

I like the fans, feminine, representative of women (most of us are women, I believe), but even more I like the colours, the designs and the flowers on the fans.
Difficult, maybe pictures of different flowers?
Maybe landscapes of our countries (a bit cheesy)?

I think it's a very good idea: simple but it shows how Simon is loved around the world!:-)
...Add also Elena from Italy!

Thanks guys - 10 positive responses so far, so I think its worth going with it.

Anyone who wants to be included, please post here - your name as you want it to appear and your country. If you'd like to choose your own fan, please also post the link to it.

These are the people included so far (if you want your name to appear differently please say so):

Lena, Greece
Elena, Italy
Bee, England
Kathy F, USA
Kabuky, USA
Angie, England
Nixenkind, Germany
Ester, Russia
Simone, Germany
Thrill, Australia
Fran, England

I've decided to include the birthday message at the top of the image, probably just something simple - "Happy Birthday Simon from some of your fans", or "Happy Birthday Simon With love and respect from some of your fans" - but I'm open to suggestions.
