    too old?

    104 year old sky diving. 84 year old first tattoo ( Collingwood 2023 of course)

    My favorite runner is in a retirement village and still breaking records two years ago it was "Super-fit Victorian retirement village resident breaks Australian record for distance running

    "
    Now its "Lavinia Petrie who set a new Age Graded record for Lillydale Lake (bettering the previous record she set last year)" August 2023!! Note to self. Can I join Team Petrie??? results | Lillydale Lake parkrun
    Mia Culpa Lavina beat me in my first Wangaratta marathon 14 years ago. I think she ran a world record for her age that day. Noting she has run marathons faster than I ever will!

    Fess up. What have you taken up as you got older?

    Dorothy rocks at 104

    Why, why would you strap yourself to a handsome young feller and step out of a perfectly good aeroplane?

    One of the girls at work did a tandem sky dive at Cairns before returning to work. She was still wide eyed and bushy tailed, bouncing of the walls nearly 3 days later.

    I know a woman who had to pop the emergency chute on her first solo dive (this is before tandem came about) and ended with a broken leg.

    50c coin from 1988 minted to celebrate bicentenary worth $15,000

    "Rare 50c coin from 1988 minted to celebrate bicentenary worth $15,000 (msn.com)"


    I have one which is NOT the mistake worth the money dam I will be checking any 50Cents more carefully in future.

    At the local markets they are selling 1 cent coins for 2 cents.

    I suppose that is a 100% increase on the investment

    That's a smaller markup than retailers of Chinese clothing and other tat.

    Luckily, or unfortunately, the coin that I placed was one of the early, circular 50c variety.
