Finally ...

Post: # 230787Post MKG »

... I'm officially 60. Now I can really turn into a miserable, complaining old git :iconbiggrin:

On a more serious note (a rarity for me) my birthday wish is that everyone on this site (and a few more besides) becomes as happy and contented as I am right now. May your lettuces flourish and your cucumbers be very long.

:occasion6: Happy birthday, Mike. Have a wonderful day and a wonderful year.
I didn't realise you had to be 60 to be a miserable complaining old git. I've already been that for years and I'm only 40! :lol:

Happy birthday honey. :hugish:

Do you get a free bus pass so you can go out and moan to all the other miserable old sods? :lol:

Thank'ee kind ladies. But I forgot the warning. My Mum's coming to see me at 2.00 p.m. (that probably means 2.30 p.m. Hell - it may mean tomorrow). So here's the warning ...

Mothers are as much a pain in the arse when you're 60 as they are when you're 20. More so, in fact - she still moves the hair from my eyes even though I don't have that much any longer. For those of you who are lumbered with the buggers, my advice is to compost them. There - my first official old git rant.

Mike

EDIT: No, GA, the bus pass takes another 5-year apprenticeship. I thought you'd know that :wave:

You'd be surprised - a long cucumber can make a whole lot of difference in your life. A WHOLE lot.
