Well it’s official. Today I’m actually as old as I feel ( physically, not mentally   Big Grin !) Today I hit the half century mark  Exclamation  How did that happen! 
I’m not normally one to make a big deal of a birthday. It’s not that special everyone has them  Big Grin . But today I am  Tongue  Big Grin .

I’ll see you all later I’m off to play on a roof  Cool .
Happy Birthday SC, and welcome to the downhill slope Big GrinBig Grin
You're only a baby SC, merely a whippersnapper (whatever that is). Have a lovely day building roofs, don't forget to write your name and date on a bit of superstructure or concrete to commerate the event. 'SC WOZ 'ERE' will do.
Happy birthday. I hope Bob's cooking tonight Smile
Many happy returns from I, young lady! Smile
Sending you Birthday wishes SC. Big Grin

A whip-snapper was a seventeenth-century term for a young man with nothing better to do than to hang about idly snapping a whip. Whippersnapper is one of those rare terms that has a somewhat literal origin.

Thanks for the birthday wishes and cake and great idea (JJB)  Big Grin . 
I got lots of lovely prezzies. A very random selection from a Moroccan bathroom sink, to a bag of marbles. And 2 lovely metal artwork things one for outside, one for inside. 

Bob did cook tea  Cool . It was the only way he was going to eat , because I wasn’t going to do it  Big Grin .
