Any guesses on his age?  I say 64.

I would say just a little younger than that.  :o

I have no idea myself but I think that even if you reversed those two digits you'd still be erring on the upper side of reality...

Thanks all, me is 43 today.

Just come back from Nells Cafe for my birthday breakfast.

I have the same birthday as George Formby. Perhaps that is why we have similar musical interests. Also share my Birthday with Zola Budd, but no similar abilities there.
