21st Birthday.

[happy daze john in oz]

New Years Day 1960 winger on Durban Castle, captains table, still under the weather from night before at breakfast, half cut by lunch and well and truly soused by dinner. My mates finished me off and put me to rest around 2200. Zombie for next two days. Still have photo's would post but don't know how.
A foot note to the above ; being born on 1st of January a man needs a strong constitution . Still here though and # 75 coming up.

Durban Castle Neil, was that not a bit risky, if I recall they shoved bloods out of the port holes on her. But you survived to tell the tale, good luck mate and enjoy the 75th, you earned it.

my 21st I spent in the playhouse bar Durban, drinking old napoleon brandy, picked up a girl from another table by buying her a drink, went to the playhouse picture section, and so to bed.

Amazing that we were at sea for our 21st, nowadays most of these kids are still at school/colledge/university KT

Perks of reaching 50
Or being over 60
And heading towards
70 or beyond!

1.
Kidnappers are not very
Interested in you.


2.
In a hostage situation,
You are likely to be released first.


3.
No one expects you to run --
Anywhere.


4.
People call at 9 PM (or 9 AM) and ask,
'Did I wake you?'


5.
People no longer view you as a
Hypochondriac.


6.
There is nothing left
To learn the hard way.


7.
Things you buy now
Won't wear out.


8.
You can eat
Supper at 4 PM.


9.
You can live without sex
But not your glasses.


10.
You get into heated arguments
About pension plans.


11.
You no longer think of speed limits
As a challenge.


12.
You quit trying to hold
Your stomach in no matter who walks
Into the room.


13.
You sing along
With elevator music.


14.
Your eyes won't get
Much worse.


15.
Your investment in health insurance
Is finally beginning to pay off.


16.
Your joints are more accurate meteorologists
Than the national weather service.


17.
Your secrets are safe with your friends
Because they can't remember them either.

18.
Your supply of brain cells is finally down to
A manageable size.


19.
You can't remember
Who sent you this list.

Charlie, em....re no9, .....I would forgo the spec's..........but wouldn't be able to drive!
