If you fancy it start something new, anything. I’m not far behind you age-wise and have been re-learnig and building my business again. Believe me it keeps you young in mind and body.
I hope you are throwing a ginormous party and inviting all your pals over. It’s a great antidote to turning 60. Your hangover will be so appalling that you’ll stop thinking about your age.
60+ is fine so log as you don’t think too hard about it. Nothing actually stops working it just slows down – although for me the big problem is the ever failing short term memory. My worst habit though is thinking back say 20 years or so which of course, to quote the cliché, really does seem like the recent past , but then projecting forwards 20 years and thinking FFS I’ll be 81! So don’t do that ok whatever you do just don’t think of doing that – ever, and you’ll be fine.
Many happy returns o’ the day.
It’s been attributed to Nicholson, Conolly and loads others. I’m sure I heard elsewhere before I heard it from them. Nevertheless, it’s sage advice for many of us at any age:
Never waste an erection
Never pass up a toilet
Never trust a fart
Hope it’s a great day.
A year behind me, well done. happy birthday Stevie.
Here’s one I heard for the 1st time today: going ham (sort of giving it your best shot possibly involving strong emotionality, or something). Stronger version: going ham and cheese. Might be American.

With Age Wisdom
At 20, stooping round about,
I thought the world a miserable place,
Truth a trick, faith in doubt,
Less beauty, little grace.
Now at sixty, what I see,
Although the world is worse by far,
Stops my heart in ecstasy.
God, the wonders that there are.

Grow your hair, grow a beard, put on a T shirt, pay some old, you’ll be feeling as foolish as someone much younger in no time at all.

No, that’ll be me. I use a bullhorn to cut through the low lying murk.

Thank you for clearing that up, P.
