I don't remember much of my 18th as I was :beer:
Same for my 21st :beer:
... & my 30th :beer:
Then I got married & calmed down a bit, & (don't laugh) but on my 40th I fancied a trip to the zoo :rotfl:
By my 50th I'd really gone up in the world as we went to Mexico
I've never dreaded getting older as it was quite hard work being a young me0 -
We went to our fave place Orlando, flew upper class and on my actual birthday I went and did a beluga whale interaction at sea world followed by a trip to Tiffany and co for some bling then off to the magic kingdom for the wishes fireworks desert party. AwesomeBit of a Florida Fan :j

Pinching some ideas here as my 30ths coming up and i've had such a rubbish last few years of my 20's i'll be glad of it. Going to use it as an excuse to do something really good after all you only live once and you never know whats around the corner.
One thing i would love to do is to wear a really nice ball gown type dress-never go anywhere to do something like that. Wonder if a posh party is a bit odd?0 -
I was more bothered by my 40th then I ever imagined I would be so I spent it at Disneyland Paris.
I wanted to turn 40 quietly and without really thinking about it so thought being absorbed in Disney!for a few days was a good way to do it.
I'm pleased to say it worked a treat!0 -

I reported this guy to the forum team for posts that I considered offensive to other users on here and informed them of his AE. I have received a threatening PM from him telling me I am a judas and have betrayed him and that he was going to bump every one of my threads as payback. Even the one that is extremely sensitive about my young children.The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.0
