Just thinking I am younger than I am fills me with hope and well-being - also inspiring me to try new things.

I feel younger now than I did in my twenties. I swim every day and play badminton regularly and am much fitter. I have my hair done monthly and wear modern comfortable clothes.

Listening to music from my era. Beatles, Searchers and all the other 60's bands. Dancing and singing to music on the radio. Playing games with my grandson, (the ones I played when I was young).

Taking off in my campervan - always an adventure.
There is so much to discover in this world, and you don’t always have to go very far.
