Hope to see you and M-J.......and maybe even that errant son of yours before too long, old bean. And I'm a few months into 46, it isn't that bad, honest.The year we hit 50 could be a rough 'un though.

Being president of the Mudcat Age 46 Appreciation Society, it gives me great pleasure to forgive you for the induction ceremony, and wish you enjoyment of the next 364 days unitl you reach unfashionable 47, which will of course be fashionable by then.

Happy birthday, mate

A dent in a bottle of rum. A DENT? Wot the hell is a DENT? Big dent or little dent? Did you have it with mix? (I hope not, because if God wanted mix in rum He'd a put it in at the factory.) A dent. Huh. Wot's the world coming to?

Happy Birthday again, young fella.

Hi Gervase. I guess you feel like a glass of water (Arfur Dent).

Many happy returns

Greetings from Foolestroupe T.W. (MA)...


Happy Birthday to you.
You belong in the zoo.
You were born with the monkeys,
And you look like one too.

Happy Birthday to you.
You live in the zoo.
You look like a monkey.
And you smell like one too.

Happy Birthday to you.
You belong in the zoo.
Get plastered, you bastard,
Happy Birthday to you.

Brucie - the measure 'dent' is classified as "more than half but less than the whole" of the bottle. It only applies to alcoholic drink and/or (usually chocolate) comestables.

Making a 'dent' in a bottle is acceptable practice and warrants sympathy for the resulting hangover. Drinking the whole lot makes you a pig and you deserve everything you get.

Well, I went the whole hog the next day, which must mean I deserve everything I get!
Many thanks for the felicitations - gratefully accepted as I struggle with repointing this crumbling edifice and wrestle with an OU essay on counter-culture in the Sixties and realise that I'm possibly turning into Ann Widdecombe (with a faint dusting of lime). Aargh!
Roll on Sidmouth, and we hope to see as many of you there as can make it!
