[oldfella]

The Golden years have come at Last
I can't See
I can't Pee
I can't Chew
I can't Screw
My Memory shrinks
My hearing stinks

No sense of smell
I look like hell
My bodies drooping
I have trouble pooping
The Golden years Have come at last;

The golden years can kiss my §§§§§§§

Have a happy birfday young Mike

Happy Birthday, you old git!

Cor, I hope my cucumbers are long this year - they are gonna be the only things that are <sigh>......

Anyway, hope Mummy's visit went ok for you & you managed to blow ALL those candles out (blimey it must have been hot!)

Now... remember to do your Well Man checklist & get to the relevant medical centres.... eye check, hearing check, teeth check, & prostrate check.... have fun!!

[oldjerry]

you've surpassed,Hendrix,Joplin,JFK,Jim Morrisson,Karen Carpenter and Hitler and Bin Laden,so many,many, congratulations. OJ.

Awwww - thank you, all ... That's hard to say when one is truly pissed .. sorry ... p***ed. The grand dame came and went (came late, left late ... such is the way of mothers). OH bought a rather large bottle of rum and an equally large bottle of Coke. She is now in bed and I am left, resisting temptation successfully (ho, ho, ho). I have, though, sampled that freezer-bottom wine, which turns out to be surprisingly good. Only a single glass, obviously.

Thanks for the advice, Julie. Even in my state, the idea of a prostrate examination has cheered me up no end

Anyway, when it was getting dark, I strolled (rolled) up the garden path. The rooks were just finishing their playtime (I live next to a very large rookery - raucous, but rather beautiful). They did their statutory fly-past and, just as I was about to turn round and return to the booze-sodden human habitat, a bat flew straight over my head. There couldn't possibly have been a better gesture by the Red Arrows. Brought a tear to my eye (you know - the one I have left).

Despite all these attempts to get me into a delirious state, I am going to repeat my earlier message - but I obviously have to change it because various people seem to think that turning my sentiments into Victorian Music-Hall jokes is a hoot (how could they????).

So - to all and sundry, wherever you may be ... if you're Ishish, may your attempts at germination be fruitful. To MMM - you've been on here more than me since you gave up being a mod . To GA - I didn't mean it, really (well - maybe not). To Andy - when I said media tart, what I meant was ... oh, never mind. To all the old blokes on here - I'm right with you, brothers!!!! To all the delicious ladies on here, I ... no, I'd better not go there. To Giz ... keep your heart where it is, girl. To Ina, who seems to have disappeared once more ... do come back, because you're missed.

And to (.........) please fill in the dots, I am so pleased to have met you, if only in a forum. People like you have given me hope for the world.

Finally, a bit of advice. Never attempt a post of this length when you're away with the fairies. I have had to edit this so many times ...


Mike

Have a good kip mate, here's to your 70th. BW.

[Green Aura]

Hope the hangover's only slightly crippling, Mike!

Sounds like you had a good day (Mothers notwithstanding) - I'll tell you how mine goes - in another five years - and I do get a bus pass then, assuming they still exist (and we get a bus service ).

[Millymollymandy]

To MMM - you've been on here more than me since you gave up being a mod . Mike

Ah but the difference is I can just pop in for 5 mins, look at a few threads which interest me then bugger off again. Good innit?

Glad you had a lovely day.

[Odsox]

Wow, sorry Mike I missed all this yesterday.
So a belated happy birthday lad, and I can put your mind at rest ... the worst is yet to come.
