Sixty years and you still cannot work the immersion heater. Never change.

A big birthday
Sixty years of people
who have something to say.
A card gets passed round the office and comes back with eleven signatures and no stories. This collects the stories instead, from everyone who knows them, without you chasing anyone in person.
Free. No app. The people writing never make an account.
What comes back
Written alone, so nobody
copies the person above.
You gave me my first job when nobody else would look at me. I have never said thank you properly, so: thank you.

If they are stuck
The nudges we give them.
Everyone who opens your link sees prompts like these. It is the difference between a blank box and a story.
The first time you met them
Something they have said so often it is basically a catchphrase
A time they got you out of trouble, or into it
What you would miss if they moved to the other end of the country
Questions
A big birthday, specifically.
Most kits land between fifteen and forty. The number climbs when you send one nudge a week before rather than one big ask on day one.
No. They tap the link, write, and they are done. Only you need an account.
Collecting is free and uncapped. Hooray Plus is £12 once per kit, and turns the messages into a full screen reveal for the day and a print-ready booklet. You only buy it once the messages are in.
A big birthday coming up?
Twenty seconds to set up, one link to send, and you can forget about it until the messages start arriving.
