Happy birthsol !

A highly impressive cake, absolutely great work. Unluckily for me it's clear that it will be impossible for someone to give something comparable to me on my birthday next month because given my interest in the Cassini misison it would have to feature that mission. Given the nature of the Cassini mission the spacecraft would have to be disjoint from the cake suspended in mid-air which is impossible - also I'm only a bit more than one year old biggrin.gif.

That is a cool cake, and appropriate one for a MER fan. BTW, is that the LEGO version of MER?

Are the cake's layers constructed to mimic the stratigraphy at Meridiani? Maybe the blueberries could be embedded, with some spilling out. And don't forget the sulphuric acid tongue.gif

Sorry - mouth full of sulphate rich dep....sorry, mouth full of CAKE smile.gif

The MER model is this one - http://www.lansbergen.net/eng/ - somehow, despite the fact that we live and work together, Helen managed to find it, print it, cut it out, make it - AND modify it to include the STS107 dedication on the back of the HGA and I didnt have a CLUE.

Right - time for some Hematite conc.... Maltesers smile.gif
