bird 10,005 Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Nice to have memories Keith deff, but the older I get I've just gone 70 this August, I think it best to put the memories to bed, and look to the future with our remaining time with got left, I was always thinking of my past, some ok, and crap. No doubt about getting old wank, but got try enjoy it while we fit and healthy, right now low, got hospital appointment 2pm, we stomach prob I've got,had it 2019, more fookin cameras In me, not eaten since Sunday , but there you go, as they say try make the best what life given you. It funny with age, I know a old bloke who 85, slim walks every day with his labx spaniel dog,. He had this dog a rescue when he was 75, I told him when old Buck gone my next dog in couple years time will be a mature lurcher about 3 year old, think old Harry was about the same age when he got his dog. You ever thought Keith of getting birds , budgies just somethink to do, bit of a intreast. 5 Quote Link to post
