    At least you no longer have wake up at 4.30 and have to queue outside the Post Office to get it, or do you old folks enjoy doing that anyway?!

    I'm just hoping it still exists when I get to 70odd or whatever they've moved the goalposts to by then.

    No, but you will wake up at 1.30am, 2.30am, 3.30am & 4.30am to pee every night, & then wonder what to do for the rest of morning whilst you're wide awake & everyone else in the house is fast asleep...
