MikeDixonUK 5 Posted December 10, 2011 Now now, you're not that old really - I mean, you're only slightly more than twice as old as me, if that makes you feel better! Happy Birthday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptSopwith 26 Posted December 10, 2011 Happy Birthday Widow! I share Mike's sentiments - you're actually less than twice my age (I hit 30 in February ). Hope it's a great night mate!

Hellshade 110 Posted December 10, 2011 Happy Birthday Widowmaker! 50 is a great age because I've decided that when I turn 50 (7 years from now) I'll stop counting how many years old I am and start counting how many years away from 100 I'll be. So next year you'll be 49, then 48, 47, etc. By the time you hit 75 you'll be telling everyone you're just 25 (years away from 100). I hope you have a helluva Birthday Sir!

themightysrc 5 Posted December 10, 2011 Happy birthday WM - I hope you get the chance to show us how geordies party. Have a great evening, and I hope that the hangover is diffused by a very large full English breakfast (followed by a visit to your local, to top up, natch!).

Capitaine Vengeur 263 Posted December 10, 2011 Happy half-century, UK. See you in 50 years... Maybe? (oh yes, also today, UK: 70th anniversary for the loss of HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse to underestimated Asian pilots... Let the ashes of the Empire cool down...)

77Scout 3 Posted December 10, 2011 Fifty is a good age. Old enough to know better, but still young enough to do it anyway. Have a great celebration! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hauksbee 103 Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) 50? You're still just a kid, f' Chris'sake! You've got many years of debauchery ahead before it catches up with you. Edited December 10, 2011 by Hauksbee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
