Lis remembers the cassette her mum got ready the night before, and the extra verse of the birthday song not everyone knows. Rob recalls "Happy Birthday" ringing out at his old office almost every afternoon at three, and paying for everyone's mojitos on his birthday in Spain because, he was told, that's "tradition".
