My wife wondered if we are reaching the limit of human ability in athletics; I think we’re only reaching the limit of people who actually take part in those sports.

    We both think similarly, and not being serious all the time certainly helps! We’ve been married getting on for 40 years now although I spent so much time working away from home, I often joke we’ve only actually lived together for 8 weeks or so.

    If you’ve ever seen ‘Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing’ on the BBC, that’s us. Everyone needs a Bob Mortimer in their life and I was lucky enough to find mine back in 1981.

      Cool, I am glad it works for you.

      My parents are a mess, should be divorced long ago, probably should never have met, I know the effect it have on my existence, but not been easy, thanks to what they learned & put into practice & their way too young as well birth of me. The facts is my grandparents were always verbally fighting, terrible matches & not good people ( arguably who extended family as well, because cycle of horrible parenting, especially the males of both sides, raised terrible people.

      So, I am glad to read marriage works for you, but for me, I do not trust the insitution & think it is better without it. Of course I am expecting the perfect woman to even fall in love & I am not perfect, LOL. I doubt I will ever get married & Know, I will never ever have children, overpopulation-overdensity & extinction of All Living Earth & thus All Living Beings will eventually happen are reasons to.

      My roommates cannot get enough of Brit Box & public media obsession with UK TV & movies, I think we fought a war to get away from. So, I will have to stop & check it out.
