I hope that is you speaking as the person you now. If you were thinking like that as a teenager then there was a career for you as an actuary or you have a genetic predisposition to become a health and safety officer.

Everyone knows they are immortal until they turn 25. No hangovers, ridiculous motorcycles, suicidal sports, open air festivals with no tent, travel with a passport and a toothbrush.

Granted it's not a good look on someone in the present day, like say Michael Gove, although there are entire Ibiza rave package tours for the over 60s who want to relive their yoof. If their knees can take it - good on 'em.

Ive often said to old friends shall we have one last get together, the answer has always been 'I would love to, but there is no way I would be able' , they are probably right.
