Happy 40th Welly old chap.
Its coming for me too, only a few months left and i will be in the same boat.
Fast forward doesnt even come close does it, my 30th was only last saturday in my eyes yet in reality it was a long long time ago.

I believe it was, but preparation never hurts does it
,
maybe this way it will soften the blow for twelve months time
according to all my friends its been my 40th every year for the last 3 years or so, I try not to bite each and every time but its hard not too
