This is where I dig up all those reassuring tropes:-

"It's only a number!"
"You're only as old as the man/woman you feel!"
"You might have the body of a 40something, but have the mind of a teenager!"
"The old 40s is the new 20s"


So don't worry about it. Just eat all that birthday cake and booze, and be merry

^ You’re not expecting me to believe all that crap, are you?! I said to Mr Star the other day, that I’m sure I’m getting lines around my eyes. He said that someone would have to get right up to my face with a magnifying glass to see them! Aw, bless - he’s trying to be nice to me, too!

I may have an alcoholic drink for my birthday. No cake though. It was my daughter’s birthday the other day. I bought her a big cake, but then my auntie had made this huge chocolate cake for her as well. So I’m all caked out at the moment!

Well you probably have 20 years on me, so I will bow to your vintage wisdom

<if you have any spare cake that you can't eat, I will find a mouth that will gladly accommodate>

Er, I’m not sure I have any of that vintage wisdom... Mind you, I will pass on what my grandfather once told me. He said “Life goes by really quickly” - and he was right.

I’m afraid all of the cake is gone! So you can’t have any with your Friday night drinking session!
