I will be 60 just now, Yaaaaaay
Of course every one is expecting a big bash, you know that one where you are expected to order the Greek braai and provide lots of booze, let everyone come and get drunk and pee in your pool.
I have been there and done that and lately with Covid and all the rest I have started to think that this would be more for them than it would for me. The group of friends that I have are close, we go camping together to out of the way places like 10 days in Mabuasehube (google it) and during lock down we get together but not all at the same time.
A few other birthdays I have jumped on the bike/bikes with Swambo and just headed out, hitting up B&B's and backpackers, once all the way through Namibia and Botswana, but I am getting a bit long in the tooth for that now. I suppose 60 is a bit of a milestone and I am feeling a bit maudlin. I don't want a cruise or anything exotic and I am putting all my spare cash into finishing an investment property mortgage (clever me I got a 10 year bond and am on track to finish in 7) so budget is tight.
Thoughts, idea's and experiences guys are all welcome. Waddayatink ?
