  1. Happy 60th birthday to the biggest technophobe the world has ever seen. If you thought learning how to use a cellphone and a computer was complicated, just wait until you see what’s happening in AI and robotics. Let’s just say, you might be living in a real-life version of The Terminator within the next decade!
  2. We searched high and low to find the most relaxing gifts for dads on their 60th birthday. After searching, we realised that getting out of your hair for a day is the greatest birthday present we could give you. So, for the next 24 hours, indulge in all the joy of having some much-needed alone time without us bugging you every two minutes!
  3. Happy 60th birthday to my forever young Dad! Our Dear Mom might think you’re too old to party like a rockstar, but you’re invited to join me and my friends on a night out or “Hangover” style getaway anytime! You might need a few extra aspirin and a longer recovery period, but hey, it’s all in the spirit of staying young and vibrant!
  4. Here’s to celebrating 60 incredible years of my fun-loving “live every moment like it’s your last” Dad. Knowing your personality, the best gift for our dad would most likely be some sort of extreme excursion packed with adrenaline-fuelled moments. However, given your fabulous age, we settled for a gift you can enjoy in the comfort of home without the risk of irreparable injury!
  5. Congratulations on turning 60, big guy! You’re one year closer to being eligible for a senior citizen’s discount. You’ve hit that point when you no longer have to worry about our dear mom complaining that you’re not listening to her – just blame it on your old age and bad hearing! 
  6. Happy 60th birthday Pop! You know you’re officially old when you look forward to fresh bed sheets and a nap more than unlimited drinks at a club night birthday party! I’m sure you’d still like a little tipple, but probably while sitting on the couch in a warm and cozy room with the TV on low volume instead of a room full of people and thumping music!
  7. We thought long and hard about what to do for Dad’s birthday. However, after consulting our dear mom, she reminded us that you would like nothing more than peace and quiet without a single disturbance for the whole day. So thanks for saving us the hassle and the money of an extravagant bonanza, although we can’t guarantee 24 hours of silence!

  1. You might look younger than you are, but your questionable memory would have people thinking you’re closer to 90! I’ll wish you a happy birthday again in one hour just to remind you that it’s your special day today…maybe half an hour actually! 
  2. Celebrating the greatest birthday honoree! I can’t wait to hear more stories about what it was like in the olden days when letters were written with quills and horsepower quite literally meant the combined power of the horses pulling a cart.
  3. Happy birthday to my incredible dad who turns 60 today! 30 years ago, you were like a roaring Ferrari speeding through life as if there was no tomorrow. Fast forward three decades and you’re more like a vintage car that should only leave the garage for occasional Sunday drives at low speeds!
  4. Happy 60th birthday Pops! You know it’s game over when your age starts to exceed some of the fastest speed limits in the country. Thankfully your mind is still as sharp as a razor blade, although our mother may have a slightly different opinion. 
  5. You’ve outgrown dad jokes and entered the epic realm of granddad jokes. That level where people will laugh even if your jokes aren’t funny because they don’t want to seem disrespectful to a senior citizen. Here’s to keeping your memory intact long enough to remember all the wonderful memories, but forget all the times we’ve put you in a pickle!  
  6. Growing from young to old is a magical journey. You start life as a baby having to be fed, changed and needing frequent naps. By middle age, you’re in full swing and at your peak. When you become a senior, you revert to baby-settings, needing all the things I mentioned earlier, but still able to enjoy the occasional “dinosaur” party!
  7. Welcome to your sixties dad, we wish you the best birthday yet! We thought of some relaxing gifts for our dad, but after going through a long list we decided to take Mom out for the day so you could have the house to yourself. After all, what could be more relaxing than not having your wife and kids nag you on your special day?
