Ewen Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Got the half century in three weeks, part of me wants to go all out on a big doo, part of me wants to ignore it and pretend it hasn't happened. Pressies have been discussed by various members of the family....penicillin, for the man who has everything, a weekend in London sharing a bed with wife and sister-in-law (more of a present for the wife and sister-in-law methinks), socks (in-laws) and the best so far, a night out with an Escort (my idea). What would you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 a night out with an Escort (my idea). What would you do. RS2000 or Cosworth models only imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I would go wild mate. You are only 50 once mate, just don't kill yourself in the process. Escort sounds good but I can't see that happening some how.... H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soaruss Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 No good ignoring it, it wont go away Live it up. i was 50 last week and had a big party for family and friends. I never had to put my hand in my pocket once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a personal level I think the forum will deserve some photos of the evening in question. Perhaps you could make more fish appear from your underpants, whilst doing karaoke in a seedy den in Amsterdam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aweegin Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 ..it's just a number, you're still the same as you ever were.. do what you would normally do, then super size it ^^ Hope it's a good one. Incidentally, my 83yr old mate says the trick is..once you begin to think you are old it's all over, just keep doing what you used to and all will be well. She still looks after a 3/4 acre garden and allotment herself amongst many other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 50 is the new 30, go out and have a blast If you are worried about getting to 50 then buy a pair of slippers and a nice sweater, think young mate !!
