Raise A Glass With Me !

#1 Post by D-Rider » Mon Aug 01, 2011 6:16 am

Yes today is a day to celebrate - Joy and I were married on 1st August 1981 .... 30 years ago today.
I'm raising a glass of soluble pain killers (nothing to do with being married for 30 years) but please help yourselves to something more interesting from the bar.

enjoy the day together and congratulations to you both

I do not feel well myself so I will just have a quiet glass of water ... I may have something else later :)


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

to you both see there was a silver lining :smt002
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

As a matter of fact, I did - a keishi pearl necklace.

That's worth a big glass of red!
