    Since I have retired, I have no need for an alarm clock or a smart watch or even a watch at all
    I have a sundial in my garden. When I wake up, I go out to the garden in my robe and slippers and touch my sundial. If it is warm to the touch, I go inside and put on a pot of coffee. If it is cold, wet, or I trip over the damn thing, it means that it is either snowing, raining,, or still dark. So I go inside, take off my robe and slippers, and go back to bed. Life is so much simpler now.

    I hate these vids. They assume we all get old forgetful, infirm & stupid. My old landlord was about 70, ran 5 km before breakfast, then lifted weights. A lady I met on a bus was 92 & using her mobile & tablet with ease.
    I'm 58 & studying a specialised degree at university - my 3rd one. I can still do pilates & yoga. I can still lift weights & swim 60 laps, though lack of time from a heavy study load prohibits that now. U don't have to get old fat & stupid - you do that to yourself. Don't assume we are all like this just cos we have grey or white hair, & a few wrinkles!
