Birthday non-surprise

[markp4200]

Ah, so the big 6-0 is coming along and my daughter wanted to know what I wanted.
Something Maserati-ish?
I ordered from the Maserati-shop and had delivered today a spanking blue baseball cap and the monologue on the Maserati Coupe.
Very nice; though the book is still in its cello-wrapper so have to wait a fortnight for it.

Oh and the 6-0 is not the scoreline from my home team (AFC Bournemouth) and MK Dons!!!

0 to 60 in the blink of an eye I bet Mark, but you're fine; you know what it feels like far beyond the tonne, and life doesn't really begin until 70+ anyway, so you've hardly gotten going yet!

 

[Andyk]

Still a young pup really Mark....

 

[dem maser]

You have years to go......your a young man!!
I have a blue maserati cap and i love it!!

 

[markp4200]

Dem,
mines blue and you'll have to surgically remove it to get it away from me!

Sixty is the new forty... All the best of the big day.

Maserati wallets are nice also - saw a nice selection of them at the Altantis hotel in Dubai, the price frightened me a bit though!

 

[dem maser]

Bout £300 pat?? There was one in duty free at cyprus for €340

 

[Maser Sod]

180 quid was the 'cheapest' I saw.

Thats almost 2 tyres!! Or 2 full tanks.....soo expensive

Thats almost 2 tyres!! Or 2 full tanks.....soo expensive

Ahhh yes, but the other way of looking at it is that 2 tanks of fuel go very quickly....a decent leather wallet will last a very long time

The nice thing about exclusivity is the feeeling of well-being. Knowing that if anyone recognises the item, then it really has cachet.
That wallet is excellent.
Think I'll build up to it slowly.
My family think I'm becoming a bit of an anorak; please chaps help me out and convince me I'm not!
I don't think you can; I'm even wearing my cap as I type!

 

[Parisien]

.....anorak....anorak.................what rhymes with Anorak.....I know....Mark..........!!
