Sounds a good bastard. Doesn't say if he rides, but no matter, he can always learn. I see he got married at 90. Randy bugger.

Bloody inspirational really - wants to get on with his fly fishing (he is 102 ffs)

Best bit for me....

"What's important is that when I'm 105 I don't want to be thinking `I wish I had moved to the other side of the world when I was 102'."

Thats gold....

I liked this bit:

Mr King-Turner's wife Joan died in 1991 and Doris's husband invited him to stay during a fishing trip to New Zealand in 1993.
She added: "But shortly before Eric's arrival on Christmas Eve 1993, my husband Lewis sadly died too".

Sounds a bit convenient.

C'mon Ixion, he's definitely old enough to know the three stages of a relationship:
1. Dating : kitchen sex phase = shagging in the kitchen and pretty much anywhere
2. Living together: bedroom sex phase = shagging pretty much only in the bedroom
3. Marriage: hallway sex phase = where you pass in the hallway and yell at each other "get fucked!"

Reading that made me smile. It's probably that attitude that has kept him going thus far.
