Too many variables in imperial and not intuitive. Besides, I’m older in imperial. 

 

Spit it out man......you shy about your age or something?

 

I'm 66 and I got no problem admitting it.

 

And I'm by no means the oldest here!

I’m one of the lucky ones I guess. COVID restrictions don’t affect me at all. I should be offered the vaccine in the next month or two. No plans for anything between now and summer. January, booking the tunnel for September. Then watching what happens at Easter if holidays are possible by then, if not then Summer...  see what happens.

67........I said it for you......no need to be ashamed of being another Dead Man Walking! 

 

Be prepared for some Gen X twats saying "OK Boomer" to you.

I sure feel old after a training session with my son. 😂 Unfortunately (perhaps fortunately) that’s not happening often nowadays.

What I find is that my mind hasn't aged.....only my body has.

 

So I think about doing something.....start to do it......and then it's like I've run out of petrol.

2b or not 2b? 

 

One of my dad's friends passed away with cancer last year, this year in an absolute travesty of bad luck his son and also my dad's friend passed away with cancer, he was a very nice bloke, rally cars, motorbikes, helicopter, he couldn't even buy extra time in the end, cancer really is indiscriminate.

My dad lived to be 91, my mum is 91 and still going strong. Genetically, I should do ok, still another few years left in this body. As for “OK Boomer”. It hasn’t happened yet as I remind myself I was young once before criticising them.

a lot of people have told me similar, perhaps its the body's way of telling them to slow down

look on it as a rest period :classic_biggrin:

The little sod is still training...he’s a lot more motivated than I am. I gave up competing some years back, he’s hoping to get into competition next year if the vaccine rolls out quick enough.

The answer is 2a according to Deep Thought.

I don't think so.....my theory is the brain and the body haven't aged at the same pace.

 

Don't get me wrong.......I've run into plenty of people around my age who think and behave like old people.

 

They do my head in with their moaning and whinging! Can't stand to be around OLD old people......but I've got all the time in the world for YOUNG old people!
