  1. Me too...very disgracefully.


  2. Just be yourself!

  3. Never having been graceful, it will have to be disgracefully! Like this:

  4. I'm with you Lollie! Cheers - a great gin and tonic to start with!

  5. by being too busy to think about it. after waving goodbye to england forever,  i will be jumping out of airplanes, walking the coast of corfu, taking a microlight flight, growing veg. keeping chickens,  riding my bike, swimming everyday and drinking lots of wine every evening while playing on my x box.

      

  6. You don't plan, it just happens very fast.

  7. I am already doing it!!

    Up to now this is what I have done.  Worn a purple dress, red hat.  Spent my pension on my brandy.  Worn satin sandals and run my walking stick along the railings. Just like this poem!!

    Warning        by Jenny Joseph

    When I am an old woman I shall wear purple

    With a red hat that doesn't go and doesn't suit me.

    And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves

    And satin sandals and say we've no money for butter.

    I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired

    And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells

    And run my stick along the public railings

    And make up for the sobriety of my youth.

    I shall go out in my slippers in the rain

    And pick flowers in other people's gardens

    And learn to spit

    You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat

    And eat three pounds of sausages at a go

    Or only eat bread and pickle for a week

    And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.

    But now we must have clothes that keep us dry

    And pay our rent and not swear in the street

    And set a good example for the children.

    We must have friends to dinner and read the papers

    But maybe I ought to practise a little now?

    So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised

    When suddenly I am old and start to wear purple.

      

  8. With a lot of fanfare.

  9. Same as you disgracefully . And not caring one bit  

  10. I didn't know you had to plan, thought it just happened. If I don't plan it won't happen.

  11. I'm a year older today but I'm getting better with age!

  12. I don't even want to think about it

    oh god, i'm coming out in a cold sweat now

  13. I agree with you. Live as long as you can and enjoy every minute of your life. People think I have gone daft driving a sports car as I approach retirement age but my TT makes me feel young and happy. Go to the gym, play golf and do the things you want to do and don't take wide advice.

  14. I plan to retire in a 3rd world country!!!

  15. with age

  16. a day at a time

  17. Simply "elegance" (graceful and stylish).

    Live life to the fullest.

    Richness and share it with all my love ones.

  18. Very gracefully...Without mirrors to ensure that!! lol

  19. With my wife by my side. Look-in out the french doors, the smell of pine trees blown in. Me and my favorite soft blanket,  look-in out at the beach.

  20. Gracefully...will never dye/colour my hair...i promise!

  21. To grow old with   3 THs (i.e. FAITH, HEALTH & WEALTH)

  22. well im an active person, but I do love my computer games

    so when arthritis kicks in and i have to give up my outdoor activities, bring on the Playstation

    so glad im of the generation that can actually handle games. I would die if all i could do was play chess

  23. Gracefully!

  24. Slowly......

  25. Disgracefully !

  26. disgracefully!!

  27. Madly. I'm thinking purple hair, red and white spotty walking stick and leather trousers :)  

  28. i will die young

  29. With tattoos, piercings, a motorbike  and a much younger man.

    I´ve got three out of four....

    Forty year old crumbly.


  30. I think I'm going to grow into an even bigger brat than I am now. So I'd say disgracefully, with botox, hair dye and all that Jazz.



  31. i'm peter pan.
