Getting old. Getting happy.

A study of the over 50's has revealed that older people are more likely to dismiss the negative and appreciate the positive aspects of life, making them happier .

TB, we're just breaking into the 70's, who's getting old, as the Beatles sing, "You got to admit it's getting better, getting better all the time".

Heading toward 100.

Thanks for the morale booster Daddy but I am nearly breaking out of the 70's. three more years to be precise.

As for heading towards the century. Well I don't really mind so long as I am healthy but the thought of having a 70 year old wife is a little disconcerting .

Don't worry TB, women are just like cars

When young and new, you always want to be around them, giving them a shower and a rub down
When middle aged, they get all sorts of problems, need oiling, fixing and are a right pain in the butt
When old, they become a vintage model, which you can take out of the garage a couple of times a year to show how well the old girl is being looked after, whilst spending the rest of your time in your new runaround
