You are always welcome my friend. What would HWH be without you and OLga? OK, it would smell a lot better perhaps and LeRoy wouldn't have to continuously remind you to come in out of the rain. But that is a small price to pay for the many benefits we all derive from your continued presence here. Besides which, as C51 has just reminded me, there is no one else who hides his stash of pre-war wine and single-malt liquor where we already know how to find it.
Congratulations on that most rare tick my friend. A birthday you say? I cannot find that record listed anywhere in the heavy HWH volume titled "Birthdays, Anniversaries, Annual Celebrations and 30,000 Pseudo Excuses to Party". If it is due to an error on my part please extend to the celebrated individual post natal day both my apologies and my sincere good wishes.
Sorry lads, as the free range kiddies say these days "My Bad". It appears that we have missed an excellent and this time valid opportunity to once again spend down the seemingly non depleatable bounty that is our HWH celebration fund. Which reminds me lads several of you chaps are falling deplorably behind in your monthly dues.
