Happy Birthday Ben. Don't forget to behave yourself or at least if you don't then remember to film it & put it on YouTube! Blimey quarter century, you're getting old!

Happy birthday Ben and Vron!

Ben's avatar may be cute.....but is he only borrowing it?

He could be as lovely as me in real life - my avatar that is!

Ben's been off-line since the 3rd! ...looks like he's taking a long weekend to celebrate ( either that , or he's still hung over!!)

Here's a cake we can all share...but best save him a slice

WOW!!!

Thanks very much indeed for the birthday wishes!

What a nice thing to come back to!

Had a nice BBq with the family at the weekend, glad the weather held out for it.

Appreciate the posts, thank you very much indeed.
