As Virgo gets into full swing today, it's all about businessman Chris Nakash; New York-based aviation engineer Paul 'Che' Jackson, and architectural engineer, Nafthalie Floyd Walsh, who all celebrate their birthday today.

It will be a family affair for Chris Nakash, as wife Zein Issa-Nakash, and mom Su Nakash, are in charge of this here do.

Many happy returns to y'all, and caviar treats!

And then, belated special greetings to the fabulous Sonja Sutherland-Dumetz, and that diva of in-your-face chic, Michelle Facey, who both celebrated their special day yesterday.

Champagne toasts my dears, and all the very best.

Now, tomorrow, being September 4, it's all about Harmony Hall's Peter Proudlock, as this celebrated socialite and art dealer is all set celebrate the 25th anniversary of their flagship Harmony Hall Great House just east of Ocho Rios, that has been home to some of the island's finest art and craft fairs, not to mention host to some of the finest art exhibitions ever mounted.

He and his very charming wife, the lovely Anabella Proudlock, have made the business of using Harmony Hall to market and promote Jamaican art and craft a fabulous passion.

And so, while tomorrow is the actual birthday, the celebrations will get under way come November 26, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of this landmark of high style and great art that first opened its door in November of 1981.

Hedoween Costume parade

And continuing to speak of fabulous symbols of the good life, my dears, if y'all have not yet confirmed your reservations for this year's 30th anniversary SuperClubs celebrations and Hedoween Costume parade and Ball at the fabulous Hedonism II there in Negril, then honeys, y'all could be left out in the cold for this one, as indeed, not only are the reservations pouring in like everybody's business, pumpkins, it promises to be the hottest do for the season, and we are talking Scotch bonnet heat here!

Sweet things, it is going to be a blast and then some as, according to one source, some plans for the week-long celebrations include: some of the fab resort's former general managers and other top executives who for that week will be manning front-office operations, the telephones, watersports and entertainment department with a few totally recapturing the magic of each of the three past decades.

Anticipated party

And if that was not enough chutzpah for one weekend, there are guests who are offering to man the wait stations and some even want to take over the role of entertainment coordinators, and set the place on fire!

Oh my word, dearhearts, to say that this here upcoming do promises to lift the entertainment bar to another show-stopping level would be the understatement of the season.

Suffice it to say, however, that it is all systems go for this much anticipated party and, honeys, not even wild steeds could keep this here scribe away.

And with general manager Richard Bourke promising that it will be the mother of all celebrations, honeys, it's exactly what the doctor has ordered, and the absolutely lovely Lila Makenvali, promising to jet in from the Big Apple for the affair, y'all can bet your sweet biscuits it's a must attend!

Now, there seems to quite a bit of a buzz in some circles in upper St. Andrew for weeks now, as the word is there's no Crystal champagne to be found around the metropolis.

And with no Crystal, being available, quite a number of dos have been postponed, pending the arrival of this fabulous elixir.

Honeys, more anon, as indeed, the situation has been described as nothing short of a catastrophe!
