A big up H-A-A-A-P-P-Y B-I-R-T-H-D-A-Y-!-!-! to Kitmaker's original Grumpyoldman, who is neither grumpy or old (fair enough he's no schoolgirl either) but is a man amongst men!
Happy birthday Dave - hope you have an awesome day!

p.s. if you get as confused as I do by timezones, Dave's birthday is on Wednesday which it is here in Aus at time of posting

Thanks everyone.
Calvin, don't worry, I'll celebrate this one with my usual Root Beer, since I don't consume alcoholic beverages.

"Root Beer"? they don't sell anything like "root beer" round there? Is that the same things as "wood alcohol"?
anyway, I wish you a very very happy birthday Dave!
