100 Today

[castle261]

I hang my head - in shame - Mike Gunnill - when I read 100 Today - I thought it was a JOKE.
Just re- read the three pages & a very belated Birthday Greeting - I remember you asked
`Can I call you ---- `- Now - I must go back to see what it was - ( that`s if I can find it )

[Hodge]

Aww, missed out on the booze AGAIN! Never mind Smiffy, your posts make me chuckle and that's just as good! 

[Smiffy]

Sorry, but you're too late - there are lots of dead marines around here now...

[Mike Gunnill]

Belated wishes for your 100th birthday, Mike! If my laptop wasn't prone to having hissy fits I would have posted birthday greetings on your big day!


And a belated happy birthday to you too, Keith! Apologies for missing the day, but you too can blame my temperamental hardware...


I hope you both had enjoyable days despite the lockdown.

Hodge, well I was wondering where you were! But thank you and I am grateful for your birthday wish. Although it isn't my birthday. It's a funny world.


If you can find him Hodge, Smiffy has all the drinks he was meant to share out.


Stay Safe

Are we sure this thread isn't called FUNNIES ? Cos a few have really tickled me again today.
 Lovely sense of humour some of you have  xx

[Smiffy]

So the rumours that you look like a dried-up prune aren't true then?

So Mike, what was it like growing up in the 1920's.....?

It was tough Smiffy. But glad that since those days I have used this special face cream.

"Thx for your greetings. As a young lad I spent time in Yallourn, Victoria. Which part do you come from jimawilliams?"We live in SE Queensland and I grew up in Wainscott.We drove through Yallourn in 2018 on our way to Walhalla an historic gold mining town.
Seehttps://www.visitmelbourne.com/regions/gippsland/things-to-do/tours/walking-tours/walhalla-long-tunnel-extended-gold-mine
Some beautiful bush in that area, see image taken on our trip..  When you were in Australia the areas NE of Yallourn had small villages, maybe 4 or 5 buildings remaining from the gold mining era.  These have since been destroyed by both bush fire and termites; the bush has regrown leaving very little evidence of the industry.Congratulations once again for reaching your centenary milestone.

I remember Walhalla very well. It was a long time ago I was there in fact the man in charge of the trip was Captain Cook.  Regards from the old country, I drove through Wainscott yesterday, the bypass makes it a better place traffic wise.


Thx for the greetings. Stay safe


Mike

Belated happy birthday from me too. Congratulations!

Don't call me sir, I work for a living 

but you are the boss of the forum, sir!

Why thank you Lyn... I enjoyed the cherry off the top but the cake part was a bit dry
I notice Members don't give their age in eaches Profile I am not bothered at all who knows but I am bothered what comes with being older?

[Lyn L]

Belated wishes then Keith, did you enjoy the cake though ? x

[KeithG]

Sorry Lyn but my birthday has just gone..
Nice piece of virtual cake in the Forum Greetings
