Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on December 05, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Neil Humphreys! Another year older and still making us laugh harder than a Singaporean auntie bargaining at the wet market. Your hilarious insights in "Notes From an Even Smaller Island" remain timeless classics—proving once again that size truly doesn't matter when it comes to islands or your comedic genius.

From navigating hawker centres with finesse to decoding Singlish better than locals themselves, you've captured our quirks brilliantly. May this birthday bring you more inspiration (and fewer durian mishaps). Keep writing, keep laughing—and remember: age is just a number... though yours might soon rival Singapore's humidity percentage!
