Re the age thing.....I really think it's a state of mind to a big extent. I really don't feel much different than 20 years ago, better actually.

Hiya Bridge - I find all this ageing stuff really interesting. I HATE reading things like "I'm old ...." That's crap because it's all so relative. I wouldn't want to be 20 or 30 or even 40 again. I've done that. New adventures await.
When I was in my mid 40's I really dreaded the old menopause and talked to a great woman, much older, looking for advice and she simply said "FF'sake, Frog, it's not a bloody illness, you know". I don't know whether it was those words or just a sheer fluke that I breezed through that stage of life with flying colours. So - why exactly would I want to be 40 again?

arvo/evening undies et al.
ageing is something one can only try & do gracefully, I reckon.
bugger the plastic stuff, I could never go down that route (too 'spensive anyways!)
I am quite the cripple atm as I had an exercise class yesty THEN rode young horse after lunch, & just in from riding said horse again, she was a little trollop so I had to get Beagley tuff with her. Talk about tantys.
Lovely mild weather here thank goodness, with hopefully autumn starting in earnest shortly as my hay fever is killing me & we are OVER brown paddocks & dust. Roolly.
Reading an intersting book currently, "Have you got the Guts to be Really Healthy" by Don Chisholm (was going to say Cheadle but then remembered that the latter is a great actor!).
Talks a lot about sugar, preservatives, processed food etc etc. He has the opinion that we are not what we eat, but what we absorb. True enough, I suppose.
Hope you're all having a good day.
The weekend beckons, henceforth.

And hencefifth,
Evening Rooters,
Ageing? I for one feel timeless. It doesn't matter to me anymore. I'm very lucky to have me health and i can out run most young bucks, distance wise. Not to mention the years spent on the planet come through me fingers on the guitar. It's kinda like from another era or planet sometimes. And maybe it is, but rooted in the now. Well, orf to mesmerise the masses at a local gig. We're expecting a capacity of around 3 to 5 tonight. I love it regardless!
Ooroo.
'I am part of all that I have met, yet all experience is an arch wherethro', gleams that untravelled world whose margins fade, forever and forever when I move'
