    I am going to just fucking well do it - in January, remember?

    Why, is it your birthday or something, are you not perhaps thinking of heading away anywhere nice ? I hear Thailand can be quite good at that time of year apparently !? :-)

    I honestly hadn't given it any thought, NIrish, but that's a great idea. I'll just go over to the Thailand forum and start a new thread.

    It's interesting to read here the thoughts of those who are still under 60. Their perspective seems to be, in a nutshell, "do all you can for as long as you can".

    i suspect, though, that for many of us who are over 60 a quite common outlook would be "I've done everything that I really wanted to do while I could do it. There aren't that many more new things in life that I want to do now (if I'd ever wanted to do them at all, I'd have done them when I was younger). Now that I'm retired and have all the time I need, I'll take things at my own pace instead of desperately trying to cram everything into my five weeks holiday entitlement every year."
    "The fruits of peace and tranquility... are the greatest goods... while those of its opposite, strife, are unbearable evils. Hence we ought to wish for peace, to seek it if we do not already have it, to conserve it once it is attained, and to repel with all our strength the strife which is opposed to it. To this end individual[s]... and in even greater degree groups and communities are obliged to help one another... from the bond or law of human society." [Marsilio dei Mainardini (c.1275-1342), Defensor Pacis]

    Don't even think about that number, it's just a number.

    Try to eat healthy, quit smoking, don't drink too much, and you'll feel like a 30 year old. Or do all the unhealthy things, you can still have a life of a 30 year old. Just don't keep fixating on that number, 60. If you keep thinking about yourself like a 60 year old, you become a 60 year old. So don't give this number any thought!

    It is a cliche to say you are as old as you think you are, but it's 100 percent true.

    Or possibly someone even younger. I feel like a guy of almost any age from the age of consent to 35 most days, and usually I can get one or two

    I prefer my own version:

    You're only as old as (the people) you feel

    Just wait until you're a sexagenarian, Joe - then the fun begins (my friends assure me)
