Was that the guy who owned it with his father.

The father died there as well.

His place hardly done any work because folk would drop oot and in all day for a yap and a fag to do a chin-wag  ?

I think the father actually went down there to sit in one of the jags to die.

Last time I passed there they were all rusting up and never been touched.

Aye the sense of one’s mortality does come into your thinking. I’m nowhere near your age and I think I about that a lot.

Was very like you as well.

But after reaching 60 not sure fear is the right word but certainly you see more of what you will miss.

My dad reached 90 but he said when the time comes he will take it like a man.

He certainly did just that.

yes passed away on the works sofa if I mind right.

Dave's brother passed away a few years back sitting in his flat with his dinner and a whisky in front of him .

Just shows you can go at any time .

When the batteries run oot that is it .

Was chatting about the mortality thing with a mate the other week, and quite possibly, I’ve lived way more than half my life.

Slowing up with my running is hard to take but can still do 6.55 min miles sometimes but mostly 7 min miles now.

Get tired easier now usually in my kip back of 8pm .

But the worst thing when I turned 60 it really hit home at how much time I have left on planet earth .

2 of my classmates passed away within 2 months of each-other last year one being the lad who owned the Jaguar car garage near pittodrie .

Toff of a bloke .

Not guaranteed how long you’ve left whatever age you are min. Little point stressing about it, enjoy life while you can ??

What would you say is the worst thing about getting older?  

When you realise you're probably never going to pull a tidy 20 something burd again. Shit, even a tidy 30 something seems unlikely these days. Doesn't stop you noticing them though, which is the cruel part of getting older.

Absolutely but I'm sure most folk think about it from time to time ..

Correct about life there's no  guarantee.

My mates daughter passed away on her bed with a glass of wine by her side at the age of 42 two years ago her daughters found her after being away for the weekend with their father .

That's just so so  sad..

I was caught staring right up the beautiful arse crack of lovely thing wearing gym kit the other week. Her muscle bound boyfriend just took pity on me and smirked.

Thankfully he wasn't of the jealous nature then .

And maintaining an erection. 
 

 

Not being able to do sport as I did is certainly one. Remember the very day it hit home, I was involved coaching youth football and I decided we'd have a pre season sprint the length of the park. Half way I thought "ok press the accelerator and get past this lot"....nothing happened. Legs didn't do fuck all and when the big centre half went past me my brain just went numb. Couldn't understand what just happened until I realised I just found out what the pros mean when they say the legs have gone. Can barely swing a golf club properly either now. Even my darts averages are plummeting by the year.

Have you got to that day yet when you look in the mirror and say "Who the fuck are you.?"

Though erections I can still do.....well last time I tried anyhow.

Buc min it's called consensual sex, (as long as she agrees to it.... or is awake  )and not illegal

On the subject of age, I'm turning 60 in 4 months and I hate the thought of it. I will be officially be "an auld cunt"

you should be doing that in your early thirties at the latest

when you stare into the abyss, it also stares back at you

the breakthrough is "your life is just an example"

[1903Fitba]

I’ve always had 40 as the line for when your life is officially over. 
 

4 door saloon car / take up golf or walking / reading books about beer. 
 

I’ll be tossing myself off a bridge on the nearest A road if I’ve not won the lottery by then. 

[Guest milne_afc]

40 is the beginning of the end.

I’ll be happy enough to reach 50, fully intact. Will probably buy some heroin* and rat poison the day before my 60th if still here.

Any cancers or amputation/mutations and I’ll do a number.
 

*just get a lay-on actually

your forties are your prime years before the decline asserts a bargaining position at around 54

even then you can face it down and tell it to fuck off, but it takes work
