Fantastic day chaps. For one (two I suppose) of my presents my wife bought me some fantastic Portal 2 book ends. She really is amazing. I maybe slightly drunk this evening, which hasn't happened for some time. Cheers all and lots of love all around.
It said, "Happy birthday, you old peasant bottom."
The hurdy gurdy is known in Germany as the bauernleier or 'peasant's lyre'; in French, a person who plays the peasant's lyre is a viellist, presumably here intended as a pun on vielle meaning 'old'; and honda in Spanish means 'deep, profound' from the Latin fundus, or 'bottom'. Happy birthday, you old peasant bottom.
