Recommended Posts

Happy birthday Hillsbro 60yrs old your still a spring chicken yet,your life seems full to me enjoy it look forward not back!.I reached 75 this February anyone who knows me will tell that wasn,t expected the way I used to carry on,I take every day as a bonus remember your a long time dead!.I have just received my free tv licence about time too,the only time I get a tad down is when I count up my old good friends who have passed on,I,m not as fit as I was at 50 but you know what Clint Eastwood said"Every man should know his limitations!".My main aim is to live to be a hundred to get back what I paid in to the system!,happy birthday Hillsbro!.

Thanks very much, everyone, for your good wishes and kind comments..:).I'd forgotten about the free TV licence, old tup - Marion (Mrs hillsbro) is a year older, so in four years' time we'll benefit from this. We made good use of our bus passes today going to and from Lincoln via picturesque villages, and enjoyed lunch at the Lion & Snake, a fine hostelry in Bailgate, behind the cathedral. And of course being retired we have free time to enjoy such things.

 

So getting older isn't all bad news, and despite passing this "milestone" I feel better already..:)
