One year older  24

I’m 22 years old today. Yes, that’s right: 22 … in hexadecimal.

(That’s 34 in decimal.)

So, what to say about it? Erm, not much. How about a list? Yeah: a list of … things I like. Sounds good.

  1. the sound of rain;
  2. cheese on toast;
  3. Futurama;
  4. coffee;
  5. laughing;
  6. taking photos;
  7. singing along to loud music;
  8. summertime;
  9. gadgets;
  10. QI;
  11. having a laugh with friends;
  12. watching a thunderstorm;
  13. playing cards;
  14. Ribena;
  15. being greeted by Rocco;
  16. homemade chips;
  17. waking up and realising it’s not time to get up yet;
  18. Family Guy;
  19. The Order Of The Stick;
  20. telling someone a joke they haven’t heard;
  21. opening an email from someone who isn’t trying to sell me something;
  22. getting a comment on one of my photos;
  23. finding something worth watching on the TV;
  24. gin and bitter lemon;

Thanks everyone.

Goldfish: the carer bought me some the other day - Rocco likes it too, although he’d probably eat anything if I pretended it was food.

SoulSniper: yep, I stay up to watch WRC when it’s on. I was a big fan of Richard Burns. By the way: have you spotted my new car?

Darren: eh? ;^)

What, is cinder toffee?

A clueless Yank wants to know :)

#13 Timmargh said:

It’s basically honeycomb - I think it’s called ‘sponge candy’ or ‘sea foam’ in the US.

Belated happy birthday Tim, and thanks for the elucidation of cinder toffee. I like honeycomb toffee too, especially where the bits are going just slightly soft and chewy.

I’m late but…

A happy birthday to you Timmy! :^D

#17 Timmargh said:

Thanks LobsterMan.

Charles: I’ll agree with that - the best Maltesers are the chewy ones.

MHC: I’ll let you off seeing as you did send me a nice iCard … ;^)
