Perks of Old Age !

Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

No-one expects you to run - anywhere.

People call at 9 pm and ask, did I wake you?

People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

Things you buy now won’t wear out.

You can eat dinner at 4 pm.

You can live without sex, but not your glasses.

You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

You no longer hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.

You sing along with the music in the lift.

Your eyes won’t get much worse.

Your investment in Health Insurance is finally beginning to pay off.

Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the
national weather forecast.

Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can’t remember them either.

Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.

You can’t remember who sent you this list,

you notice that these are all in big print for your convenience.

And finally,

Never, under any circumstance, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night!!


Any more you can think of?

Sorry SSG...I cannot think of any others, as I've forgotten the ones I just read...

Hi

How do you live without sex?

I am not that old and hope I never will be.

A very overrated activity, imo.

Re: Perks of Old Age !

I can justify the cost of my iPhone by having to use its magnifier to read the tiny letter and number passkey on the back of my router, enabling my getting into its settings.

Wi-fi has been horrendous today; all I wanted to do was watch the flu of 1918 programme on iPlayer but it kept stuttering then stopping.
