Tom's 60th Birthday

Tom joins the exalted group of bus pass owners.  He is having a holiday next week for his actual birthday so we sprung a surprise at the start of our cons meeting.

For a birthday - the perfect working environment met Tom as he came to work this morning.  There was just enough room for his brown fruit scone which is collected from the restaurant at 08:32 each day. As with all ageing Ayrshire folk regularity is critical in all things.  Another treat provided by the secret desk designer was a "Killi Pie" an essential footballing accessory.  (Those outside the West of Scotland may have to Google the significance of the previous sentence. )

Following on with the football theme a personalised Kilmarnock shirt was well received.

Lynsey presented the highlights of Tom's family and working life using  photos to trigger some of Tom's most renown tales which mainly included bare backsides and drink.  Several presents to help Tom through the coming years followed.

We all went to the Fox and Hounds for a celebration lunch. A birthday cake awaited our return to round of the early afternoon and on to more con-calls!!!
