Another year Older

Well folks its my Birthday today and the only good thing I can say about it is that at least I am one step closer to retirement! I'm a whopping forty four years old today... how the hell did that happen? Well my body may feel like its on its way to decrepitude (entirely my own fault) but I assure you my mind is as sharp and focused as ever... errrm, what did you say my name was again?!?

My wonderful wife paid for my Tankfest ticket for my birthday, the kids have bought me a watch and there was some some extra cash in my birthday card so I have plenty for Salute on Saturday. I've also had some money from the rest of the family (not an ill fitting jumper or pack of socks in sight!) bless 'em!
