A birthday greeting

A well-known journalist I had met at an event last year and who has been in touch occasionally called in the morning. He is based in Abu Dhabi.

"Is Sharjah having a Light Festival now?"

I said yes, it started day before blah blah. 

"But are there festive decorations around the city?"

I told him I am not sure, that I will check when I go out.

"I heard they are doing it because it is your birthday."

That is when I realised he was just pulling my leg. He had got an alert on Li.

We chatted awhile. I must say it was the most fun birthday greeting this year. I cant stop laughing.
