Italian Birthday

Over the years I have celebrated birthdays in Canada, the U.S., England (twice), New Zealand, Indonesia, Tibet, Mexico, Germany and now Italy.  This year's will be memorable not because it made me eligible for retirement or put me into a new age group category should I start doing triathlons again, but because my present was Cranky the Crane from the Thomas the Train toy series. Hopefully this will contribute towards Alex's understanding of the concept of sharing.
