Happy birthday, good to see you back. Rock on

[Dr Goggles]

so, when I rang you the other day it was actually your birthday here...so, what, are you keeping secrets from me now....?

Life, man o man, what a thing, what a world, what a long strange trip it's been...

Anyway judging by all the carry on this is a big birthday...

It was good talking at you and great to hear that you're feeling better than you have for a long time... Keep at it.

Eat cake, lots of cake.

When I saw my picture on the side of a milk carton, I figured I should probably check in with my friends.

I thought I saw it on a recycled oil jug at the surplus store!  :-P :lol:

Chris,

Just to let you know that life begins at age 60 - - at least it has for me !

Shortly after my 60th birthday in 2007, I was undergoing my 2nd chemotherapy regime in a little over a year, and trying to sell my business.  I successfully negotiated a sale, as I was being told that I needed bone marrow transplant.  Within a few months, I was again having a nearly life ending chemo on one day whilst my brother was having stem cells harvested from his immune system, and an hour later I had his stem cells transfused into my system.  That was 12 years ago, and I have been to the Salt Flats every year since 2009 except 2015, setting records from 2011 thru 2019, so this year, if it happens will be my 10th anniversary.

So keep up your spirit and get on with that project!

DUDE! ! ! !       WTH? ? ? ?

The selfie from hell?

Hopefully you took a torch to the lens on that phone.

I seem to remember that Mrs. Midget is like . . . . . a PROFESSIONAL QUALITY PHOTOGRAPHER!

Tell you what, before you take and post another "selfie from hell", I'll cross the cheddar Curtain to meet you with a cure that is smooth, cool and malty.   Or the "libation" of your choice.

I'm walkin', talkin', limpin' proof that there IS life after 60.    It's about the "journey" dog, focus on the "journey" . . . . . .  (and the speed on the salt . . . )

Eat cake, lots of cake.

Listen to the Dr.

AND, it's my advice also.


Since I turned 60, it's all about dessert and liquor, not necessarily in that order . . . . .

Well . . . .

April 12, 2020 . . . . . goes down as a black day for MG, and for motor racing in general.

With the passing of Sir Stirling Moss, Motor Racing loses one of the last, great "gentleman" racers.



"To achieve anything, you must be prepared to dabble on the boundary of disaster."


It is drivers of the caliber of Sir Sterling Moss, that have elevated the "art" of race car driving to one of: "Magic, not Science".    A skill level very, very few ever approach, let achieve.



Godspeed Sir.   And may all your further endeavors provide challenges you can overcome, to provide a perpetual sense of accomplishment and satisfaction . . . . . . .

Sequestered south of the Cheddar Curtain is my 4 year old friend whom I've known for about 8 years.

We're both virus hiding, but neither of us wants to make our wives widows just yet.

Happy Birthday, Mark! 

[WOODY@DDLLC]

So Markus O'Really-Us completes another solar orbit! 
Happy B-day Mark!  :clap :clap

[Stainless1]

I'll throw in on that.... Happy Birthday Mark

Stay healthy my friends 

[Peter Jack]

Here are my best wishes to Mark on putting another year behind him despite all that's been going on over the last few months.

At the same time Chris I'd also like to comment on how good it is to see a posting from you. I hope your health is continuing to improve. I'm hoping you're able to spend some constructive time with the Midget and your search for employment is moving forward. If anything, this thread should offer a really good picture of the type of person you are to any future employer.  :clap :clap

Drop in more often! 

Pete

Thanks, PJ.

The heck of it is, if they won't take the time to glean through my resume, what chance have I got of them researching this tome?



Just a head's up, I'm feeling the best I have in years, and while I've been silent on the boards, I am COMMITTED to getting the Midget back into fighting shape.
