Well, I'm overwhelmed by the TeakDoor membership.
I would have to say it hasn't been my liveliest Birthday... I go to Norway for an offshore job soon and have a load of prep to do, so have been busy all day.
But now I can let my hair down... I'll post a few pics of my celebrations later.
The wife and daughter have forgotten about my birthday but it seems a bit late in the day to remind them now. The gardener wouldn't have known anyway.
So I didn't get a Champagne lunch but I did get a tuna sandwich and a Batchelor's Leak and Potato Cuppa Soup!
I didn't get any presents this year, or cards, or cake, but I did get a 'Happy Birthday' email from KLM with a code for 25 Quid off my next flight, so that was a result... although I have a feeling that everyone gets one of these.
Anyway, giving is better than receiving as they say, so I'm gonna give everyone on this thread a Green... or maybe owe one.
Thanks everyone!
Aww... they forgot your birthday?Maybe they'll surprise you for dinner...
Anyway, here's a bday song for you, in my language (Tagalog). Sing it to the tune of Happy Birthday. All vowels have short sounds.
Maligayang bati, sa iyong pagsilang
Maligayang, maligayang......
Maligayang bati!![]()
(maligaya = happy, bati = greeting, pagsilang = birth, iyo = your, iyong is a conjugation of iyo)
^ Why thanks Katie. I'll owe you 2 Greens!![]()
Happy Birthday young man. I really hope you are having a great day, despite all the work. Crack open a cold one, you deserve it!
ETA NO greens required.
^ Thank you Switch.
Rules are rules, you'll get your Green. Maybe even 2 Greens for calling me 'Young Man'!
Would you believe the wife did completely forget... I'm now cooking - on my Birthday - Baramundi baked with a potato.
We usually have sweetcorn with fish but bollox to that... sweetcorn AND peas tonight. It's my birthday!
Bladdy hell guys, it's my birthday!
My first Ya Dong for a few weeks... but 37 degrees slowed things down a bit.
Yogi arrived late to the party. But his smile is always infectious! Not to mention some other parts.
The Barramundi was shite so I shared it out amongst the guests.
I took a bottle of Mont Clair and a box of Kit-Kats to bed, to watch Death in Paradise.
I think I'll celebrate my birthday in Bangkok at the weekend!
Me Welsh mate is as useless as the rest of them.
My mum called just as I was distributing the Barramundi amongst the canine contingent. I have things sussed now, every time I want a swig of Ya Dong I just point the phone upwards. Clever, hey!
"Why does your phone keep pointing at the sky?"
"I don't know mum, must be the dodgy internet we have"
But it's not as if I'm still a kid and not an adult as far as my mum is concerned.
56 is not ha ha?
In fact I haven't had a ha ha birthday since my 30s... pre Korat!
^ Have a Break, have a Quick Crap!
Edit: My mum's birthday parcel hasn't arrived yet.
But I have had one line Whatsapp messages off both of my sisters!
^ Yeah, good night!

Some old bloke had one of those outside the pub. Nasty fucking thing it was. He did tell me the breed. I forget now though. Does it begin with a P or a B?
Happy Birthday Mendip! Let the Ya Dong flow!
A bit ruff that your daughter forgot. You're supposed to slip her an extra 1,000 so you can take her shopping and she buy you something.

^ Thinking about it, it was half the size of that thing in your pic
Bottoms up Mendy
