Birthday greetings, Dr Bob.
Out of interest, what now constitutes the "big" one? To me, it will always be when I reached 40, and my then wife organised a secret birthday bash with all friends and a lot of family. A rather grand surprise because I had never really celebrated my birthdays in the past, or even now. |

Dr Bob. Enjoy your day. Welcome to the (septuagenarian) club. Plenty here.
Age is just a number! |

As you say, Chris, age is just a number. I first tried retirement at the tender age of 42 at the same time that I also retired from my marriage. Was bored so un-retired, if such a word exists, within two years and had a new partner a year later.
Then all change again at the age of 57 when I had had enough of working and the miserable weather in the UK, so by mutual consent, my partner and I split and I trotted off to settle in Spain. Only decided to settle back in the UK because of health problems, initially experienced when stepping off an aircraft on a chilly November evening in Leeds whilst on a trip to visit my son and family. |

Just back from Westminster Abbey, for the Stirling Moss Memorial service, so a Very Happy birthday Dr Bob.
From plain old, Bob. |

Renewing Licence!
I am just about to have a birthday containing the same numbers as Dr. Bob (Happy Birthday Dr. Bob)
I believe I have to renew my driving licence, but I am concerned as I would like to keep the 7.5 tonnes entitlement. How have any other of you young springers gone about it? |

I didn't bother about it, as I no longer have a need for it, but I seem to recollect that you can retain the entitlement but may have to have a medical. It seems that you can't do the renewal online, but have to follow the procedure outlined here: https://www.gov.uk/renew-driving-licence-at-70
