Aint I the Happy Birthday Boy

[dansai]

My birthday's coming up and when my dad offer to buy me an under tray toolbox for my ute, I said "Ahem!"

And when I said is there something else you would rather, I said "Well.........!"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

One of my keenest questions is wether I can produce new roots by ground layering around the graft union to produce better bases and remove the reverse taper.
