86 is a good age, my grandparents are beyond that now and i know each year may be their last.

3 Score and ten they say don't they?

My wife's best friend's grandma is 110. Honest!

My gran died at 99, in her 100th year. I only wanted her to get a letter from the Queen. Never happened :(

Thats an achievement.

Personally i don't real want to go much beyond 80. When life becomes hard work and boring i would rather check out......but of course thats easy to say now.
