>>Later life doesn't seem like much fun from what I can see, I'm all for having a good time now!
Nothing wrong in that of course - life is for living!, but there's no harm in taking a bit more care.
I nearly lost an eye a few months ago when a twig in the garden tried to remove it, so I always wear eye protection now when using the strimmer or hedge trimmer.
I thought of you two when I was 5ft up a stepladder on uneven ground doing some hedge trimming this afternoon.
I don't like heights anyway, since I fell off a ladder at age 15 when I was a window cleaner and ended up in Guy's.
I'm 70 in a few months and can do everything I could 10 or 20 years ago (including that!) but as my ole mum used to say "no one knows what is round the corner".
