Raedor's bio
Well, like many others, I feel weirdly confused sometimes about how I reached this age? It just seems to me that I'm still really 21½, but in a body that does not respect my desires or indeed thoughts.
That all said, I do like all the knowledge, wisdom and life’s knocks & bruises I've somehow acquired on my journey here & feel strangely content knowing that I did get here.
So, I enjoy good company whenever I can get it. I enjoy gardening, (fair-weather only). Reading, though not as much as I did years ago & most of all, I enjoy knowing my children are also doing well in their lives and giving me peace as well as beautiful Grandkids.
I try & treat each day as a blessing as I have now lived many days since an amazing day in 2007, when I had and survived a cardiac arrest.
All in all, life surprises us in so many ways & I for one look forward to many more.
If I somehow I had the chance of being granted a wish, I don’t think I could go far wrong with the delightful thought of having a small sailboat, (I don’t know port from starboard let alone any knots), somewhere warm & sunny & to be fishing and just floating from island to island. -

Would you like to see health test results online?Some very good points Lionel, but surely you must trust computers as, after all, you did use one to send in your actual comments. Whilst it is very worrying about the misuse and abuse of personal Data, that young teenage lad you mentioned happens to be suffering from mental health issues and whilst no excuse it probably was a case of the default passwords being left in place. As for Talk Talk, I have to agree that is a disgrace and I think there is more to come out from that specific incident. But given all that, if we do not learn from these past mistakes and simply turn away then it is normal everyday folk who will have to pick up the consequences. Technology is here to stay, whether trusted or not. But by adopting simple solutions and following standard proccesses will mean your data stays safe and you can then reap benefits such as Online Results. I personally have an ICD fitted which is remotely monitored. This saves me going to the hospital so many times a year and its so much quicker to sort things out when any problems arise. It really is brilliant. So dont be mistrusting, be computer savvy and beat the hackers at their own game.ViewDate:

Who is Britain's most iconic musician?Hey, you put up Freddy Mercury as a candidate, yet you seem to have forgotten the mist Iconic of them all, Mr John Lennon. I doubt that a day goes by where I do not whistle one of his songs or hear one on the Radio. I think his best ever was 'Imagine'. That is simply undescribable really as its so poignant, true and sad all at the same time. How about 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' or 'Penny Lane'. All penned by John. I know he's been dead a long while now, but has Freddy got an Airport named after him? I dont think so. So I think you missed aout here on this Poll and I feel sorry for John that you seem to have forgotten the best.ViewDate:

Would you consider retiring abroad?Ah, The Real Marigold Hotel syndrome, excellent climate, your pound turning into gold inside your pocket, whats not to like. After watching one of these programmes I made further enquiries and found that the difficulties in owning property in India, say, is virtually impossible, short of marrying an Indian . And now we have the "Euroworld" threatening draconian measures against all things UK once and if Brexit arrives. As such I think its probably as well to stay in lovely ole Blighty invest in a a set of VR goggles and enjoy and world of beauty and pleasure unfettered with any travelling or indeed any visa hassles.With the imminent arrival of our 'AI' coded Daleks assistants life can & will only get better. You wont need any to travel to any beach paradise as it'll all be right here in sterilised, sanitized bucketfuls and all readily recyclable for instant decomposition by the judicious use of UV light. All systems F.A.B. (Please use appropriate and relevent adjective’s to replace the acronym capitals)ViewDate:

Do you think England should play tonight's game tactically or to win?Whatever your style of play, its likely not to make a jot of differnce when your pitched aginst a dirty bunch of rotten south amercican cheats. I really have to say that Football is totally unenjoyable to watch anymore. To see players hold, push, pull even climb onto and over is so disgusting and cerainly not what I or anyone should call International Football. Even with this so called VAR it still seems to fall for these despicable cheats. It should not be allowed let alone accepted. I think I'm going to stop watching such rubbish and take up something much safer for the future like skydiving or even some genteel Parascending. Roll on the Penalty Shoot-Out but please lets use real guns.ViewDate:

Are you a blood donor?I used to give blood quite regularly, but since having a heart problem they say I cannot give blood anymore. Such a shame as a pint of blood given saves others & I doubt would finish me off, yet, once again is likley to be a case of H&S red-tapeViewDate:
