75th birthday card messages: what to write

Seventy-five is three quarters of a century and usually celebrated with family rather than a party. These 75th birthday card messages are written for that: warm, a bit cheeky, and easy to copy out.

A specific thank you — for the lifts, the advice, the Sunday dinners — is worth more at 75 than any amount of clever wording.
