Oh… dang, I apologize … I TOTALLY misread your sentence and didn't even notice the “last day” … I should’ve known better, after all it’s you :bow:

I turned 42 today: I still feel young...
...especially when I look at my DDK mistakes.

Definitely: I feel very young at GO ;-)

I'm now 58. Mrs. Banbeck took me to dinner at WP24, a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles on the 24th floor of the Ritz Carleton.

The photo below is me and Mrs. Banbeck just after dinner. That is LA in the background. The westernmost of the downtown skyscrapers - such as they are in earthquake country - are just at the right edge. The Hollywood hills line the horizon, with the Hollywood sign just out of sight to the left.

Happy Birthday. You look like you drank too much coffee this morning!
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

28. Since then, I got married and bought a house. I also started getting into cycling last month (on Strava). Less time for Go :(. Time flies so fast...
