Of course you will. See you there and I will buy you a coffee. I will be celebrating my 116th birthday that year.
Admit your insight - things you knew all along that have now become public knowledge.

President Bush junior is a total and utter liar and should be tried for war crimes.
Sorry...Im not sure if that is public knowledge yet.

You didnāt stop cycling because you grew old, you grew old because you stopped cycling.
Said to anyone who claimed they were too old to ride a bike, and didnāt correlate their sedentary lifestyle leading to an early decrepit body as a result.

It is September 1997. Within a few days we have had the death of Diana, Princess of Wales and Mother Theresa. There was a rumour that Frank Sinatra was on his deathbed, and his dying wish, should he pass away in the next few days, was that people should keep this quiet, as his passing wouldn't get anywhere near enough attention, given the two very high profile deaths at that time. They should wait at least 6 months, and then announce it.
9 months later the news came out that Frank Sinatra had died.

That early? Wow, I was merely basing it on the demise of the Deltics, which were first withdrawn in 1980 (55020 'Nimbus') and had their final day on the 2nd of January 1982.
Was this tunnel Penmansheil, between Newcastle and Edinburgh?:

I know many a keen cyclist and walker who through no fault of thier own have become infirm.... a stoke for instance is no respecter of persons.

Giving up smoking, doesnāt guarantee you canāt get lung cancer. But that shouldnāt be your focus. But without any doubt your chances of getting any of these diseases is substantially reduced with an active lifestyle. That is the best you can hope for.

Good luck, Iāll be 91.
I remember learning about Halleyās Comet in the early 80s when it last visited earth and I was at junior school.
Ever since Iāve been waiting for Halleyās Comet to return in 2061.
Iāll be 86 so itās possible.

Covid did it for me.
Robbed my balance which meant no cycling. It also attacked my muscle....struggle to walk some days......all within 6 months.

I remember seeing that one too.
But it takes 2500 years to complete an orbit so even Accy will be dead by then.
In fact thereās a distinct possibility that no human will ever see it again.
