It is very soon, it is almost upon me. I am gamely fighting off the depression with a combination of beer, wine and whisky and a week off work. :OD

Yes indeed, those are the best use of air quotes!

Yeah there is something about birthdays that are depressing. It's not like that when you're a kid. I wonder when the switch takes place? I'm guessing it's at 30. Sounds like you're self medicating nicely though 👌

If you don't post again before the big day - then happy birthday!

30 was the big switch for me. I didn't give a hoot till then. Well, there might have been a minor frisson of worry at 29. Lol, seems so inconsequential now!

And cheers! I shall try to squeeze one in, no doubt a weeping woe is me nonsense. Lol!
