Thursday saw my 65th Birthday. Sixty four was fun being a “ Beatles “ or “Zoo Lane “ one but Sixty five seemed more serious in a way.
The weather was sunny and warm so l headed over to Edinburgh for a wander-
An early morning gift found on rising , a new lamp for my room.
An interesting free library and the shadow of the photographer.
Walking down the steps towards Stockbridge with Fettes in the background.
Excellent signage at the Botanics.
I sat out for lunch and to read it was lovely.
My first sight of the damage caused by the storm.
Further shots of storm damage above and below.
When in town l met my daughters after their work and they took me out for a meal, which was fun.
The following day would have been Jan’s 63rd birthday. A day for us all to remember her and the good times together.
Happy 65th, Alan!

Alan,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I had my 75th last month … and I hope that both of us have many more to look forward to.
All the best,

Happy Birthday! I hear 65 is the new 45 :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Alan! Many more!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Alan and many more of them, I hit 64 in a couple of weeks, looks like you had a great day.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday and many happy returns ! being 65 didn't bother me , but when I reached 66 last year I became an OAP and realised I wasn't 16 anymore :)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday. Looked like a good day out in Auld Reekie and nice to round it off with a family meal at the end of the day. I have another 3 years and a few months till I get to the magic number.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! Looks like it was a lovely one, with a nice walk (too bad about that big old tree though), a nice gift, and a wonderful time with your daughters. Nice to remember the good times with your wife, too.
ReplyDeleteI've got a few years on you. Amazing to think I'll be 69 later this year. (in fact, I have to double check whenever I think of it or mention it. Wait, 69? Really? ha ha)
Happy birthday! Nice to see you enjoyed the day :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Alan- 65th ? I'll be 69 in May- us old guys need to keep our Hobbies going and ticking over nicely.
ReplyDeleteBelated Happy Birthday Alan, looks like you had a pretty decent day!
ReplyDeleteDonnie and I have you sandwiched: I'm currently with you, but reaching for 66 this summer. Hope your 65th year follows on as nicely as your B'day.
