Well currently, to quote the Mad Hatter, it's his happy Unbirthday.

That might change soon. :D

A belated thanks for the birthday wishes, guys - thought I'd better wait until the excitement was all over before replying, just in case I felt a bit overwhelmed by it all :lol: :oops:

Well, not really - part of me tries to totally ignore stuff like this the best I can, particularly when it feels like getting even older :-o

On the other hand, there's always a slight sense of achievement in reaching another birthday, particularly when it's more of a milestone like 60.

And, I'm slightly excited about getting my bus pass :oops:

On the other hand, as things stand the bus pass will only really come in useful when the car's in the garage, which obviously I don't want, so it's a bit of a Catch 22 in that regard.

And not particularly looking forward to when I need the bus pass because I don't or can't have a car :sad:

And, also belatedly, I hope everyone made some, er, life-enhancing and life-fulfilling resolutions at new year. I did, as usual, but have dumped them all already :roll:

But this year I'd sort of decided to do some 60th birthday resolutions instead, so we'll see how they work out 8-[

For my New Year's resolutions, I said I won't smoke a single cigarette this year, nor have a single alcoholic drink all the time I'm in the UK.

And I'm pleased to announce I've kept to those so far this year.

That said, as I have never smoked nor ever drink alcohol in the UK, it's not really that much of an achievement. 8-[

In England we don't get our free bus passes until our 67th birthday. :shock:

Nearest I'll be to painting is a tin or two of Crown or Dulux in the spring, but as I'm in a rental property won't be going daft with that either :-o

But did think about buying myself something, but to be honest can't really think of anything I really need. Or at least something that wouldn't cost a fortune...

Of course, lots of stuff I could buy that wouldn't cost the earth, but probably something I'd consider a waste of money before too long.

So maybe Sussex is sort of right - maybe just crank the heating up a bit, or have it on for a wee while longer :-o

Certainly won't be cigarettes or alcohol, though. Never smoked (apart from the usual teenage experimentation) and haven't touched a drop of alcohol since before lockdown.

In fact, there's been zero alcohol consumed where I live since moving in seven years ago [-(
