2nd January.
Big sigh of relief that the dreaded time of the calendar is over ?
I‘m always glad to get through the last three months of the year.
Late October is my wife’s birthday
Mid November is our Wedding Anniversary
Then of course Chistmas.

All above require present ideas for HID and after 50 years of being together, ideas are a bit thin on the ground.

Wrap yourself up as a present.

I did it one year and she asked if I had a receipt ???

I made the mistake of getting married three days before the wife's birthday (wedding 21st October, HID's birthday 24th) so that's a big hit and then just paying that off and we get to Christmas. Much easier on the wallet this year as everything was shut so meal out to celebrate or trip away. Trouble is I have HID's 50th to consider this year too

I see that there has been over 100,000 views of the "Laughter - the best medicine" thread. Thanks for everyone's contributions, particular shout outs to @Slime, @Dando and @SatchFan amongst many others for the laughs, smiles, groans or whatever other reaction they have elicited, a real mixed bag :)

Having just successfully completed the naughty boys driving course! (Speed awareness training is, i think, its proper name). So licence is still clear of points as it has been for 30 years or so. Actually, it was interesting and worth doing.

I did one these a few years ago and the woman running it was real ball breaker - she could kick start 747’s!
When she said speeding didn’t get you anywhere quicker I did chuckle
