Have actually made it to 70 The first male member of my family to do so:D in several generations.
Looks like it will be a good chinese meal tonight.
 
Wow, that's great......enjoy your Chinese.....😉
 
Congrats @malturn
A milestone indeed.
Enjoy whatever you do today
Just over 2 years and I will catch you up 🙂
 
My step daughters took their dad out for a meal in January on his 70th - he whinged like hell (shouldn't spend money on me) - but loved it really! So I order you to have a lovely day followed by a really good meal - start the decade how you intend to continue!

Many happy returns Mal.
 
Hope that you had a really lovely birthday. I turned 75 a few days ago, in my head I'm still 20 - it's only when I look in the mirror that reality strikes.
 
You are all youngsters, can't remember my 70th birthday now, I'm hoping I make it to next year for my 80th.😛:D

Malturn I know how you feel, I have out lived all my family and cousins who all passed in their 60s.:confused::(

Well done! Keep going!

Interestingly, from my family history research, the average age of death seems to be creeping up each century (hopefully this embed works).
