good for you!
After a while, it just becomes better than not having a birthday. At least I think it does. Can't remember...

Cheers all,
I've gained an Ipod touch as a gift...only it looks a bit too complicated for me...it's a sign!
I'll have to write things down from now on....

40 was a bad birthday for me.
Here is why! I think that most people would see 80 as a good innings. On that basis, your now half way through your life. Look at it another way,
assume your life is represented by a graph, up to your 40th, your climbing the graph, afterwards its all down hill. A scary thought for me when I
reached 40.
Oh, BTW - happy birthday!
You only live once - make the most of it!

You're 40 today (15th) Rich?
Holy Smoke - exactly 9 years older than me - you must have had a long paper round!
I occassionally still get asked for I.D. and I am at the stage where that's a good thing...
Anyway, Happy Birthday to us.
Sincerely,

You're assuming a normal distribution - remember that you can make statistics show whatever you want....

Fcuk off, you're not 40
I know the valleys are steep, but you must have had a tough paper round

The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.

Happy birthday mate, to be honest I've had more fun in the last 3 years being over 40 than any other time in my life, but I wish to god I had
the same body I had when I was twenty as the fun hurts more these days  
If you're not living life on the edge you're taking up too much room.

I was 30 feet up a tree yesterday cutting big bits off with a bow saw and I ache everywhere today. I wish I was 40. Happy birthday.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Me too! 68, wish I was 40 again, but then I would have to go to work every day, so 68 isn't too bad.
