    OK so you're now 50. Just keep on working to keep me enjoying all the benefits of being in my 70'th year.

    60 next year. Been on benefits last decade due to ill health and useless doctors - except for 1, he believed and saved my life. Roll on my birthday, can claim a bit of pension credit ( thanks Martin ) and increase in housing benefit. Would be nice to be able to get something to rent I could afford but beggars can't be choosers. Oh, and I get a bus pass, free prescriptions I get anyway. The hairdresser must think I'm older, I get cheaper haircut. Car insurance is quite cheap. How can you afford not to be older?
    A fool may give advice but the one who takes it is the bigger fool.
