happy birthday eddie

Hi eddie. I was gooling to find you a present. I almost posted 'The Dangerous Book for Old Codgers....but it had tips for 'mobility scooters' so I'll post that in a few decades.

So I googled Van Gogh's 'Old Shoes'. I was going to add: 'not getting older, just wearing in'. But Van Gogh's shoes looked worn out not worn in.
Then there were images of old tennis shoes and I started to overthink trying to find the appropriate shoe for you.

I decided on this pair.

A little bit battered but still afloat, is enough

Happy Birthday eddie. It's a pleasure to post on the same forum as you

Thanks, Moony. One of the nicest birthday prezzies I've ever had.

Tom Waits puts it very well in "Ruby's Arms":


Railroad boots.


Leather jacket.

My birthday's tomorrow: 9th December. Must give some thought to a suitable celebration.

A real pleasure to be on the same forum as you too, Moony.

Happy birthday Eddie!

We've been together for years now and it's sure been nice.

Beautiful song. I believe this completes the outfit.

Andalucia- John Cale.

Thank you, Eddie


I had time to hear the song you posted first, "The Endless Plain of Fortune"



He pronounces Segovia (the name of my city as you may know) very well hehe
Who is Segovia there? or is it just a made up character for the song?

Perfect!

No Englishman needs TOO much encouragement after being asked to dress as a woman:

Not at all. Swings a fine axe (trans: plays a mean guitar).
