"Monday birthdays are sh*t" says Dave

Dave's 43, back to being older than me. But a Monday is surely a rubbish day for a birthday. Best to ignore it and wait till the weekend. Except for presents, they must be ripped open immediately. No one ever liked a birthday martyr. Luckily, I think he likes his small but really mouthy music thingamajig, it maybe reminds him of someone.

There's a severe lack of mid-week revelry opportunities in our lives. But maybe we are just getting more grumpy or like a quiet night in. I mean it's pretty lame when one of the highlights of your day is seeing a yes saltire fly from the Persley bridge sewage works (#jobbies for yes) or getting yes sign envy when you see big beautiful Yesses looking just Airchie driving through the Bridge of Don. But that's maybe just me. Dave is much more lame averse.
