Happy Birthday Monty!
In a world that has decided
That it's going to lose its mind
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind.

Bloody hell. I knew you were getting on a bit but 70!!! Does you Zimmer frame have four feet or did you plump for the 'racey' ones with two wheels at the back?
Happy birthday.

Re: Happy 70th Birthday Monty!!
Thanks, chaps. I think 70 is the worst milestone birthday. 30 and 40 you are in the prime of life. At 50 a more mature family man. At 60 bringing wisdom to still being a productive member of the labour force. At 70, supernumerary, a drain on the health care system and a blot on society. At 80 you don't know who you are let alone your age, so you're happy. Still what can't be helped must be endured. I've reached the three score years and ten the good book promised. Is that the lot I thought. Could there be an extension? I went to check Psalm 90. On the bright side if you are strong you get another ten years. On the down side, those years are full of labour and sorrow. Poor old Tango. Yes, definitely time for a few drinks.

Re: Happy 70th Birthday Monty!!
I worked for three months after I turned 70,Monty, then retired. 65th was a milestone, after that I stopped bothering. 75th coming up in September and eighteen months without a cig......Que sera, sera...Montreal Wanderer wrote:Thanks, chaps.

Oh shit! I shall have to treat you kinder, gentler, less belligerently in future - can't have you keeling over on my behalf...William the White wrote:Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Really? are you not?William the White wrote:Aye, all the best, Monty. I'm not far behind.

Happy Birthday Sir.I hope it's been three score and ten years of making happy memories. I wish you the strength and health to make the next twenty or so as memorable and if possible, happier.
