Make his 50th birthday; buy a beret!
No, this is not Daan posting at The Beret Project, but his wife Megan. It's Daan's 50th today, celebrated together at the beach at Worser Bay, Wellington (see photo). He wears a "plato grande", I believe...
Come on, make his day: buy a beret!
Dear Daan - Congrats! :-)
ReplyDeleteBobbel Boy told me about this important day!

Surely he hopes that I would order 5 or 6 new berets - for Bobbel Boy. He is really a beret-freak. He even goes to bed with a beret!:-)
But I told him -
My little Bobbel Boy - please listen:
I'm only an unknown painter, I' m not Croesus.
I'm a descendant of Vincent van Gogh (who believes?),
and who cares... ? :-(
So here is nothing to do, than to send my
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU !!! :-)
Have a nice day!
- Matthias (Germany - South)
Happy 50th Daan! May the second half a century be as wonderful as your first.

Thank you, David. Good to see you here again. If the first day as a 50 year old is anything to go by, I look at a bright future!
DeleteHappy B-day, Daan!
ReplyDeleteIn some cultures, it's customary for the birthday celebrant to give gifts out to all his friends rather than receive! :) (So, I'll take any real high-end boina ya got in a size 60!)
I'll be holding my breath... :D
-kk-
My wife has actually taken care of that already, a surprise party with lot of good food and fine drinks handed out. You should have been there, but then, I didn't send the invitations...
DeleteDidn't get any beret myself, btw.
