    If you start thinking about death and racing at the same time you had best take up another sport like snooker.


  My dear old Father, God rest his soul, spent his autumn years on the bowling green involved with the terribly dangerous English sport of lawn bowling. 

  I well recall his telling me about the match he was having with poor old 'Bob' who was well into his 90s, my dad took his shot and turned round to ask Bob when he was going to take his turn, only to find him lying stone dead on the grass. 

  That sport was a true killer, it took them all one after another. 

  But the point is, they died doing what they loved, and that surely beats dying n your sleep in a care home with Alzheimer's!
