Yes but that figure is life expectancy at birth. You have reached 59

And good bags of rabbits in 8 years of lamping,ticked the boxes for me. But now he 12 year old, eats well  just plods on now nice steady . Got little woody as well the jack x  chihuahua  thing   he  15 year old, and stubborn little prat lol. Like been said on pup post lurcher  sec.i not going to get another  dog till Buck gone . Got keyhole surgery  this Friday  on my right knee , so no driving  for a week, and try after  if not to much pain. So them 2 won't  be going for walk till text  wed-thursday. Then I take them be bit sore  but I do it . Then as been said.i might  be moving back to South staffs,  bit of look my March , I looking at 3 bedroom bungalow detached  next Thursday. If like it I go for it . So as you can see another  dog the last  thing I need right now. And being honest prob best let big lad enjoy his routine  that he used to, he as got that big lump on his side. Vet said he to old for a Op at his age, which is  true . But I will get another  lurcher when he gone, maybe  ex worker  male  something mid size good coat. But no rush as yet is there.? And thanks folks  for nice words from you all , it does cheer  me up lads. When your on your own.i very been a member on long while,  and met quite few people in flesh , but lots on who not, but still class you all as  great mates.i don't know what 2025  going to be like  knee done  could be new home going back to my roots . All the best folks for 2025.  Ray.👍👍

Good luck mate. What do they say? The darkest hour is just before the dawn.

Hope your house viewing goes well.

Thanks mate  I've had offer on my bungalow, and accepted  it. This 2 bedroom bungalow  in south staffs , as no chain,so that's good , if like it  put a offer in. The people my end would like to be on before March he said  something about paying more stamp duty  after March. So if it goes OK in south staffs for me, you never know  I could have just before March. So the next couple weeks with knee  Op and poss buying this other place,  going to fair  bit of stress I have to deal with, but I need to move now, and make fresh  start  with my remaining  years head  of me.👍

Nah, get a capable lurcher over one, one that's doing the job, he'll thank you later. Lol
