living to 112 years of age

[TheOtherHalf]

It wamentioned on the news the other day about the oldest women in Britain just having died 1 month before her 112 birthday. I just cant imagine what it must be like to be that age. Its nearly twice my age now. I dont think I would want to live that long, Ive enough ailments as it is. What others think about living that long ?

[Bbbananas]

If I've got most of my mental faculties, and am not wracked with pain, yeah bring it on! But if I'm a demented diseased wreck, I'd rather bow out a little earlier.

I'm aiming for 88.

[ummmm]

You might change your mind when your time is coming to an end.

if it's the same lady as I think it is T.O.H, she's my friends grandaughters Great Grandmother, did they say where she came from?

[Bbbananas]

friend's daughter's grandmothers great grandmother. It'll take me all morning to figure that one out.
Is her name Myrtle?

I don't think for one moment that I'll live to be anywhere near a hundred...my granddaughter wanted to know yesterday how old I was in dog years, lol....(392)

[Bobbisox]

LOL salla, I was just trying to work it out myself! If it's your friends grandaughters great grandmother would that not mean it was your friends mother?

[TheOtherHalf]

So you were right Bobbi. Perhaps your friend might inherit something. Did she actually know or see her ?

inherit what is the question? If you retire at 60 then have another 52 years go go you'd spend all your money
