Happy birthday Swanny

remember.....you're only as old as your hip replacement

Have a great birthday

I knew it! I knew it! Well, not in the sense of having the slightest idea, but I knew there was something I didn't know.

Happy Birthday Swanny!!!
Wish you still young and energetic as ever....

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is like expecting the lion not to attack you because you are a vegetarian.

Happy birthday Swanny....

I'm quite certain Homer Simpson said that.....oh that Twain, the plagiarist...

how about this Bob Hope classic, swanny:

"Middle Age is when your age starts to show around your middle."

Thanks very much everyone! I shall keep your sayings in my slightly addled mind as I drag my aged carcass around the lab!!

I think I'd prefer to be considered like a fine wine than a block of cheese, but I take you point! Hey, if I can't laugh at myself, who can I laugh at?

@casandra, I think my problem is more one of furniture: my chest is now heading towards my drawers!

...I never laughed this hard, swanny....

but, ok, since it's your birthday, we shldn't disappoint your addled mind and ageing carcass....

and so, fine wine it is, I meant you are....does a Le Montrachet 1978 sound good to you?

also, may I recommend that you start wearing suspenders so you'd not trip on your drawers?

and lastly, we hope you had a great time.....btw, what gifts did you get this time (aside from the anti-ageing creme?)

Sure thing! Could I have a case?

Oh, the usual. Zimmer frame, hearing aid batteries, subscription to "Old Geezer Monthly", some soft biscuits and denture cream...

I don't know, you young people, no respect for the old! (At least that what my mother reckons: "No-one cares when you're old", she says, and we just tell her to be quiet and go back to her quilting... )

...another telltale sign of ageing, swanny: cantankerousness....but we luv you really and bioforum's not the same without you.....(I had to google Zimmer frame...and the "Old Geezer Monthly"....may I recommend some other large print reading materials

.....)

seriously, any special gifts...aside from the usual 20 bottles of wine and hard liquour?

...hope you had a fantastic time....
