I am 65, I have already lived 41 years longer than James Dean, 25 years longer than John Lennon, 23 years longer than Elvis, 8 years longer than Ward Bond and longer than a lot of footballers i have watched.
I know time is limited. Should I live another ten or fif**** years i won't be able to do the things i could.
At the moment I am in great condition, never had any childhood illnesses or been in hospital, never had any serious illnesses other than a heavy cold, I have drank and smoked and ate whatever i liked. My results from my five year medicals had always been A1. My lung age is 26 and my hearing is that of a young man.
I know it won't last forever, but I have a mate aged 70, who won't eat bacon and eggs, doesn't have butter, has a flu jab every Autumn.
He suffers from poor eyesight and hearing, COPD, Barrett's disease, bad leg's and a dodgy ticker.
Life is a lottery, enjoy it and stop worrying.
