Extreme old age certainly isn't.
So far I'm enjoying being old though "
Since turning 60, I’m becoming aware of things slowing a bit more, which I’m not enjoying |

"What happened to the 4s? Are they all partying away then?
My grandmother lived to 98 and spent the last 30 years of her life telling people she wouldn't be around much longer lol"
That was meant to say 40s. And good on your grandmother. ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

I think we associate 'retired' with grey hair, walking sticks and elastic waist trews . |

If it's the dirty 30s, naughty 40s, filthy 50s then it must be the sexy 60s !?
As mentioned earlier 60s these days generally appear much younger than years gone by. Growing up people in their 60s usually looked 'old' (a sweeping generalisation, I know) |

Free prescriptions and eye tests.
Bus pass soon.
Don’t care if it rains at weekends.
No kids in coffee shops or National trust properties in the week.
Cheap trips abroad through the winter.
Concessions.
Final salary pensions.
Being blamed for Brexit.
Foraging for firewood.
The list goes on…

"I started an over 60s thread couple of weeks ago
It quickly vamoooshed
This one would of as well if I didn’t bump it from time to time lol
Good evening all have great evening "
I think there are fewer over 60s maybe so these threads don't get as much traction. Also I have noticed a lack of willingness to engage ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

If you have met a couple of times before she probably just had an appointment she couldn’t get out of

Hello there fellow sexagenarians.
Speaking personally, the advancing years have steadily eroded any inhibitions I had in my younger days; plus my experience and (hopefully) wisdom acquired over the years means that sex in my sixties is more fulfilling than ever.
If you like the look / sound of me, do pop by my profile and say hi. |

Wait until you are 79, hurtling towards 80.
In my case,serious physical problems such as no strength have only started flagging up in the last few months and weeks.
In September I was till doing heavy tree work in the garden almost daily.
In October I was up a,ladder replacing a soffit board (luckily with my porch roof as an itermediate stage). Now I can barely do the stairs with bottled water in one hand.
Adrenalin kicked in last night when it was change a 7.5 kg gas bottle or get hypothermia. I can roll the 15kg variant but now need help lifting one.
The frightening part is knowing that it can ony get worse! |

Good morning from Sunny Spain, 62 here, oldest ever surviving male in my family, sooooo, do it now or miss the chance is my theory.
Very active, always busy, love my work and never want to retire. Mind of a 24 year old, not the modern dumbass kind, trapped in a well used, abused and sometimes damaged body but every scar and ache is a memory. Definitely not ready for the Horlicks and tartan slippers yet. Still a lot in the bucket list and growing old disgracefully is now my priority. Any partners in crime willing to get up to things younger people think we shouldn't?. |

"Just turned 60 and still have the same sex drive as I did in my 30's... "
If not more so …. because the social pressures are less , more relaxed , more sharing , more everything, wiser more financially stable
In my view it only compliments one’s sex drive …actually into overdrive ! ![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |

"What's everyone doing today?
We're hopefully going out for coffee and a walk then relaxing for the rest of the day "
I am making 5 Diced steak in Red Wine Casserole Batch meals and 5 Chicken Curry meals.
After which I will consume the remaining red wine and probably fall asleep. ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

Well, I woke up on the right side of the ground today. Always a bonus.
TBH, my swinging life didn`t start until I met my Goddess at the age of 60. Probably getting more sex now than I did in the whole of my previous life - and I was a dog.
My old man was still shagging at the age of 83, and only stopped because he died on the operating table, otherwise, would probably still have continued. Hope it runs in the genes - the shagging bit that is. |

Well, from our perspective, a major problem of being over 60 is the relative lack of 60+ couples on here who are still playing. Or, perhaps they just say they're not playing anymore when they've taken a look at our profile ![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |
