I know. Its a sad but true fact that, once over the hill that is 40, the decline is both fast and inexorable. Yet I embrace my path towards the god that is Victor Meldrew* with fondness because, at some stage, my faculties will have degenerated to a point
where I just don't care any more!
*For our overseas friends who might not be familiar with the British sitcom 'One Foot in the Grave', Victor Meldrew is a 60-something curmudgeon who hates everything about the modern world, the people occupying it, and the things it does to him. His catch phrase of 'I don't believe it!' is legendary and oh so true.
