That is a great thing to feel proud about! I don't know how old you are, but I do think you are wise.
Thanks BeeBop.
as my personal data is open and I am running 63 now, having retired from Indian Telecom, where i was lucky to serve nearly 40 years including an year of training. I don't really know whether wise, but i know one thing for sure, I have to learn to avoid being childish at times.

Wow, you have 12 years more than I. I hope you are around much longer yet!

I think we all need to learn to avoid being childish (at least I do,) but child-like is good.

Morning Sarma,

At 63 you are still a 'spring chicken'.!

I am 76 this year and only semi-retired, what you might call an 'old rooster'.

Regards

Thanks for your kind feelings .

As years passed on, my personal desire that to do academic higher education from a regular engineering college after my graduation with Maths and physics, did make me hungry to continue learning after retirement.-- in fact what all we new then is not that relevant, except electrical funda. Later of course i took a post graduate diploma in electronics and telecom from IETE (an Indian institution like C&G institution of UK).

Now that I am free and wanted to continue with the experience gained from the department of telecom, where i worked for serving analog and digital transmission and switching equipments, The only way is to try to live with a dynamic community.

The general retirement in India is at 60 from govt services. I admire your health and hope to see you as healthy at your century completion Sir,

It is a real eye opener when you discover the age of various members here. Just goes to show that age is really just irrelevant.

hi Mike,

As the man said, 'its not the age, its the mileage!.'

EDIT: just to complete my CV, 2 children, 6 grand children and 13 great grand children...

Hi BeeBop,
I'm sure you will be one day, remember moderation in all things...

What would I do with 2 great grand children and only 1 horse? They'd have to take turns.

Is this like golf where the lower the wife score is, the better? But you might get arguments over a zero score though.
