    Watching the news while eating my lunch, and they are reporting on the death of Tony Benn. Apparently, Harold Wilson (a rather tedious British Labour Prime Minister of the 70s) said of him that he "immatured with age". Now, I don't know about you, but I'd take that as a major compliment!

      I would bloody love that as description. You cannot stop growing older, but I have worked hard over the years to not grow up. :jig:

          Good News: I'd be shocked if your death didn't generate the same comments. :laugh:

              Couldn't stand his politics (Viscount Stansgate) but he was bloody clever chap and an interesting person to hear speak.
