I'm not sure what you mean by 'golden rain' whether you are taking the
**** or not but I reach sixty one very soon and I can assure you the
incontinence hasn't started to dribble out just yet.

Well, many happy returns for when that day comes. As someone who will
reach sixty-one early next year, I can sympathise with your worries
about the threat of leaky pipes.

However, as a form of reassurance, my father is 90 and as far as I
know, he is still in control of his bodily fluids, so I am remaining
confident for many more dry years. I just wish that my eyes would make
up their mind whether they want to actually see anything in focus or
not.
