Damn.... I really should have sucked my gut in for this one... My sons look considerably slimmer than I do.
Not often that I persuade the boys to participate together. Makes a pleasant change.

"Let me die a Youngman's death"
50 years old this week..... Yippee?
Normally I don't bother too much about age, feeling old, mortality etc etc, but the whole "celebration" of this milestone (we have a party & BBQ planned) seems to make me think about it now. The poem describes exactly the sort of feelings I would prefer to have about ageing & mortality.
The poem is by Roger McGough...... He has some other wonderful & droll poems as well. If you have not read any of his, then take the opportunity to do so if you can.
