Thoughts from an active pensioner who is now somewhat past his Biblical "Use-by date"

"Why just be difficult, when with a little more effort you can be bloody impossible?"

Make Up Your Minds!

The media has been reporting today that, according to Government figures, more than a quarter of children aged 16 and under today can expect to live to see their 100th birthday.
The Daily Mail reports it here and the Evening Standard here.

Wait, hang on a bit, surely it was only a couple of weeks ago that the Media were reporting Government figures showing that obesity and excessive alcohol consumption were going to result in many of today's youngsters not living as long as their parents.

I do wish they'd make up their minds!
