    A sad loss. Hearing the many tributes, he was a genuine actor, mentor and humanitarian. It's sad to see people like Alan Rickman lost early when they still have so much to give. RIP <rose>

    Apologies no offence meant to the 69s but IMO it's crazy to think that

    A: this is too early, it's a great innings
    B: I ask people to think how many people in the UK face what after 69/70? So often we hear of people retiring then leaving us shortly afterwards, having had a life whereupon they are targeted by financial products throughout their lives to find it very different than they were promised.
    I think the recent deaths of two greats should be celebrated regardless of putting a number next to it

    Mid Jan is a bad time for many yet it is still time. If you are lucky to be fit then I say enjoy your time. The facts are that not all of us on here will make 69. If you get a chance have a 69 by all means

    My message is celebrate life and do it now. We are so lucky to be in it
    And facing 69 in the UK IMO looks bleak at times because in this current culture the average person generally is then forgotten about ... I do not think that is right for people who haven't got or had the position to prepare for later days

    Agree. My ex wife dragged me to see Hamlet at the Riverside studios about 25 years ago & I remember he had an incredible stage presence. He made something I didn't really have any interest in an enjoyable experience.
