I do think if you keep active as you get older you 'keep it' so to speak.

My grandparents are all in their eighties and are incredibly mentally active. I'm sure that's what the doctor said anyway... or was it 'disturbed'?
Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

My gran used to do all the daytime quizzes on TV.  When she died in her nineties she was still perfect mentally and her hearing and vision were brilliant too.

My grandad is excellent at quizzes and crosswords etc. He has a great memory for facts and history and trivia - the only problem is he forgets what he's told us ten minutes ago!


They are talking about that playground thing on the radio and now I am dying to go on a roundabout...

The roundabout makes me feel sick. I like slides and seesaws.
