Blimey, maybe Will's twin has been posting as Will and we haven't noticed. Happy birthday Will - well to both of you! 34 candles still doesn't catch most of us up.

Happy Birthday Will.... next year you will be old enough to have a beer to celebrate!

Enjoy your youth, it doesnt last long enough. Compared to most of us who are at the stage of when the mind makes a promise the body cant fulfill.

Im not as good as I once was, but Im as good once as I ever was.

Happy Birthday Will - he said, through gritted teeth, being currently 4 x your age


Don't be in a rush - I still haven't decided what I want to do when I grow up

Happy birthday to you and… him, 'f course! Dont be upset he shares your age its rather common for twins I've been said.
17, Ô mon Dieu, what a blessed age. Same period of the year I went to Nordkap driving a Renault 4L. Its was so good to cross many borders showing only my motorcycle licence which was, in France, very comparable to a car licence. Only the stamp was on a different line… Delta, know what? HAPPY DAYS !!!!

PS: Supra or 200 SX charged, isn't it the smell of drift?

Just sitting down to an ice cream and just looking back at all the related B'day messages and just thinking to myself how lucky I am to be able to have company to such great people on here.It certainly has helped me through some tough times.


Thanks again for the wishes today.Feel a little overwhelmed tbh.Might sound a bit petty or daft but again none of you had to press 'reply' icon.


Cheers


Will-Now with an exploded ice cream on the floor.

Goodwood got a lot of flack for not making all this year’s Members Meeting coverage free to view, but totally by accident I’ve found the Festival of Speed on BBC iPlayer this afternoon....... What’s going on?

Spent the day watching some club racing at Brands, a car parade going up a hill in front of a country house doesn't do it for me

Remember you 'play' tennis, you 'play' football', cricket, snooker, rugby, but you don't play cycling, or indeed motor sport.

There in lies the difference, there are games and there are sports'

I'd like to think that this is Bob doing his usual 'tongue in cheek' job of winding us up. I cannot imagine anyone really thinking that football, cricket, rugby or tennis are not sports within the accepted meaning of the word. They are just words - we could easily say 'play' cycling or 'play' motor sport; it simply doesn't sound quite right. On the other hand there are some games trying to get into the Olympics which really aren't sports at all but then they are called the Olympic Games; just words!

Dear Mr Turner,
I resent the suggestion that I would try to wind up my friends on the forum, what a thing to say about such a distinguished member of the community.

With great age comes great wisdom, listen to and take heed of the words of the sage.


PS; Hope all is well with you, and your lovely lady.

Lucky that football is just a game, so it does not matter that the ladies who represent England are pretty useless.
