Yesterday afternoon we headed south of Boston, invited to Joes 50th birthday “surprise” (which wasn’t such a surprise apparently). His many friends & family gave a huge array of hilarious gifts, some only for adult company (the “crotch brush”, and the “Sex over 50” book which was blank inside)!
Deb presented a collection of themed gifts, including a “grippy” steering wheel cover (with velcro and matching gloves), “old geezer” flat cap, and super-dark wrap-around glasses (please folks, don’t anyone be offended!)
Other gifts included Vodka(!), and a “lucky ducky” shirt – to be worn on the BABE rally!
Also, head over to MINI2 and commiserate with Steve (“Cape Cod MINI”) who’s new R56 died on him yesterday, leaving him late to Joes birthday, stuck in an SUV!
Thanks Deb for the invite; thanks Joe for the excuse 🙂
M&I / GBMINI 
probably died of painted wheel arches…
