My 50th!!

[Anon_F]

OK I’m 50 later in the year and growing old with a fight and a laugh!
Been asked by a friend I have known for 40+yrs what I would like for my birthday?
We thought of a nice hip flask but I don’t drink much these days?

Carpet slippers and a pipe I already own, but looking for something just right, but what?

Any ideas?

You are just a young sprog at the moment you wait till you are in your 70s. Go and treat yourself to a trip to Las Vegas. You are not ready for the carpet slippers and the pipe.

How about a Lamborghini?

How about a Driving Experience Day, with a choice of Supercars, such as the Aston Martin, aforementioned Lamborghini, or whatever takes your fancy. http://www.trackdays.co.uk/driving-experience/

Yeah, I'd 2nd the experience day suggestion! I've wanted to do one of those for ages, I bet that would be great fun!

I would 3rd that I did that some years ago at Brands Hatch with a couple of petrol heads and it was a fantastic day out

Hmmm wonder if i can fit my extra long frame into a nice sports car?
I know i'm to tall for a single seater racer as tried that a few years ago.
Just about can fit in a kart with a bit of a struggle and no seating padding!!

Saw this the other day and thought it was an excellent idea!

Not as exciting as racing a fast car, but saves on the washing up which is always a good thing

Friend got one for Xmas, they are a fitness freak and do lots of triathlons.
Now they also have a fry up one a week too!!

Training for a triathlon is certainly a good way to justify all the calories of a fry-up!

What are your hobbies? Are you looking for a techy present?

Never mind all this racing car stuff.

How about a trip into space.
