60 ahead?
I've got to share some great thoughts from our dear friend Roz about the next impending 'big birthday' not that she's anywhere near it yet.
She says:
"However I’ve still got 10 years to go to live up to the following:
Now I am Sixty
- I shall wear purple hats and spend all my money on chocolate. I shall collect ancient books and cultivate English roses.
- I shall stay up till two writing witty letters to my friends using curious words like “zounds”, “cotillion”, and “flabbergast”.
- I shall eat the bluest Stilton and drink the finest port. I shall dance all night and sew sunsets of silken fragments.
- I shall buy Christmas crackers and sing silly songs (to make up for the gravity of my youth).
- I shall go to Cornwall just to watch the surf then visit village inns and always take the best seat by the fire.
- I shall take to carrying a silver topped cane, just to whack any car that dares to cross my path.
- I shall always pause to hear the bell-ringers ring the changes and tell my friends never, under any circumstance, to worry about getting older."
That's the spirit!
