Well genetically things look fairly optimistic. My Mum and Dad, as I said, are 81 and 77. Three of my grandparents reached 82, 85 and 94, though the other one died around his early 50s. On my Mum's side, three of my great grandparents got to over 80, the other one dying in her 60s and at least a couple of my Dad's grandparents reached over 80. With better nutrition and medical care these days I figure that, barring accidents I ought to manage a fair age.
