Happy Birthday to You.. Happy Birthday to You... and so on.

I reached 40 2 years ago and i have never felt better. in the last 2 years I have built my indy, found a truely wonderfull woman who i will be marrying this year (who also has an intrest in cars and allows me to indulge mine). Im moving into a nice big house and life could not be better..

so life really does start at 40.

All the best and things will only get better from here on in.

Happy Birthday Donut. I guess this means youve perfected the art of Birthdays now and can be considered a true Master.

Only 60 to go to reach the ton!

Happy birthday mate , just don't get too excited the old tickers not what it was.

chrisg - 18/1/06 at 01:36 PM

No way.

There is no way, I say, no way, that you are younger than me.

Talk about having a big paper round, yours must have been the whole of southern England.

i thought you were nearer 60 than 40, honest.

Happy birthday mate!



Cheers

i dont think you look that old Donut. Maybe some new specs might make you look younger. You obviously have bounds of vitality.

Dare i say it you have more than a striking resemblance to Penfold!!!!!!

Chris only delivered to the North up as far as Newcastle but he had a Sunday round as well .

being 40 was no different from being 47 37 or 27. Perhaps 17 was a bit different


The major hassle about being 40 was taking about 12 family members out for a celebration meal, and having to pick up the bill
