Happy Birthday, Simon! Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon! Post by: Jules Gray on October 13, 2010, 09:43:51 AM Simon, have a truly fabulous day. Warmest greeting from us to you.
Jules Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon! Post by: H (Heather Smith) on October 13, 2010, 09:59:55 AM Have a fantastic day, and thank you so much for all the pleasure, joy and at times comfort that your music has given.
Here's to the next 60. Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon! Post by: Andy Tuck on October 13, 2010, 10:02:10 AM Happy Birthday Simon. Thanks for the great music.
Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon! Post by: Pete Gray on October 13, 2010, 10:39:06 AM Winter fuel payment and bus pass ;D I've got to wait until next year, so jealous. Many happy returns and thanks for everything. Sorry to pass on the bad news but having reached this same milestone in July I now discover that it looks very much that the winter fuel allowance is a gonner until, at least, 65 and that I should eventually qualify for the bus pass in November - but that this is also being phased back towards 65. Anyway, happy birthday young Simon none the less ! Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon! Post by: Chris on October 13, 2010, 10:45:21 AM Indeed, Simon won't get his bus pass until 6 May 2011.....
So it'll be the the Acoustic Bus Pass Tour 2011 then! Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon! Post by: ColinB on October 13, 2010, 10:57:16 AM Many happy returns to you Simon. Hope you have a fab day.
For some strange reason there's no mention of your birthday on the BBC News web site but they do have a photo of you with your fiddle... http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/cc60d937-e80b-4c66-8aa2-e89cb57c8b08 8) Title: Re: Happy 60th, Simon!
