Old And In The Weigh....


With my rather precarious financial affairs not helped by my singular lack of success at picking the right Lotto numbers, and being charged to cart dirt at 59 cents a kilo, It is reassuring to see that at least I can put off retirement a bit.
"Prime Minister Helen Clark has vowed to scrap practical driving tests for over-80-year-olds if Labour is re-elected, despite Insurance Council figures showing "significant increase in accident frequency with age....
"Old soldier Theo Thomas, of Papakura, believes the two-yearly driving test for the over-80s is a waste of time that serves only to embarrass older drivers.......... Mr Thomas, 79, has driven everything in his time, from a Valentine tank to his current Honda motorcar.
"They make us feel as though we are some idiots who get to 80, or thereabouts, and we have had our day.".
