[grasscarp]

I wanted to fly and did.
Didn't plan on children but now have children and grandchildren and can't imagine life without them. Far better than anything material.

Perhaps we could all use a bit more money and a bit more time

Aged 52.
Own own home , now that mortgage has been paid off.
Happily married for 25 years in August.
Enjoying life working and living in Switzerland and earning a very good salary and high standard of living. Will return to uk in two years time and retire.
Health is below average , once I turned 46 bits started to go wrong.
In right place for good health care, keeping reading the papers and news , have real fear on returning to uk and what's left of NHS :-(
But they only gave me a five year work permit and I don't intend to extend it.
Miss Fish And Chips and baked beans lol

After a difficult (to say the least - I was scared for my life!) few years in my 50's I have emerged into what I hope will be the sunny evening uplands with my dear OH. No. I haven't yet achieved everything, but I have had a couple of stories published and surely the book can't be too far away!

One always has regrets and knows of the opportunities one did not take. Looking back, I have helped pupils to achieve their goals and changed some lives, so I suppose that's not too bad. Still itch to do more with my life!

[TWR]

Whatever your future holds, I wish you good health.

Excellent health at 75, coming up for 39 years married to sweet woman 20 years my junior, 2 brilliant daughters, Oxford and Manchester MA degrees, grandchildren very happy & bright.

Retired FCA, still have some clients, old friends. Do the Times every morning (OK most mornings)

I'm being badgered to say what I want for my big birthday, but can honestly say there's nothing in the world I want.

Sorry, 30 years!

"Most"

A few years ago I sold my house and bought this flat, which I love. So that's good.

I didn't have a mortgage, but I bought a couple of other houses in the town, so I do now.

I have a reasonable income.

But I don't have a family. I'm 49 this year, so children are not going to happen. That doesn't worry me too much. I don't feel very maternal, and I can live without the prospect of squeezing something the size of a melon out through my front bum.

And my boyfriend lives in Switzerland, so I spend a lot of time sitting at airports. On the plus side, I get to read a lot of books.

But generally, my life is quite jolly. There are always people less fortunate than oneself.

JJ, as long as you are happy & contented, life has given you a bonus.

Thanks, TWR. I am happy.
