Thanks, OriginalGriff, you know you are one of the people I really look up to here on CP, since I am closer to the Equator which, I am told, is south of Wales. I take comfort you are out there, even if far over my horizon.
cheers, Bill

Actually you can't help it. You get more emotional when getting old.

Well, Dear V, I appreciate the birthday greets ! But, I must confess that, in my case, I am much less emotional the older I get.
Oh Yeah, in my twenties I was a virtual professional emoter, specializing in poetic pathos, wistful angst, "the road not taken" flavor of self-indulgence.
However, I was told by many people ... some of them friends ... that I was a very amusing fool.
cheers, Bill

Yes, I can relate to all of that, I was at a similar juncture in 1965. And nice to know there's at least one CPian older than me.

Happy birthday Bill!
I'm a fan of your 'signature' long posts everytime. In this post you have mentioned everything briefly but still I feel the big length.

Happy birthday.

71? I had no idea!
I remember going to a birthday party and decided to sing 'It's my party and I'll cry if I want to' to the concerned (bit drunk, probably), and it turned out that some bloke who had a number 1 hit with a cover of it in the 80s was there. A bit embarrassing really. That's the wonderful thing about too much booze, the embarrassment comes later.
Happy Birthday!
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

Hi Robb, Thanks for the birthday greetings !
How I wish I, also, could say ... about reaching this age: "I had no idea"

Why so reflective? Is everything alright?
Anyhow, happy day of your birth. Stay strong.

Perhaps because only through reflection can one see beyond the illusion that things are either closer than they appear, or further away than they appear, or, indeed, the more deadly illusions that things are what they appear, or that appearances are what things are ?
Thanks for the birthday greets !
cheers, Bill

Just returned home and noticed this. Happy Birthday Bill.
Only 12 months until you will be in your sixth cycle.

It's not about figuring them out. No one said "hey I need help figuring them out." It's about if there any I don't know about. But thanks for saying an answer to a question that wasn't asked. I'm sooooo impressed.
