Thought I'd share some family pictures with you. I was in Sydney a few weks ago and caught up with my daughter Joelene.

This is Joelene with her son Sebastian, aged almost three. That's right, I'm a grandfather.

Finally, a few interesting quotes on old age:

Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow so.
- Tryon Edwards

If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should never grow old.
- James A. Garfield

Growing old is no more than a bad habit which a busy man has no time to form.
- André Maurois

You know you're getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.
- Bob Hope

Time ripens all things; no man is born wise.
- Miguel de Cervantes

The old horse in the stable still wants to run.
- Chinese Proverb

No gray hairs streak my soul, no grandfatherly fondness there! I shake the world with the might of my voice, and walk - handsome, twenty-two year old.
- Vladimir Mayakovsky

For the soul there is never birth nor death. Nor, having once been, does he ever cease to be. He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing, undying and primeval. He is not slain when the body is slain.
- Bhagavad-gita
