So what items were those, honey? I guess we can discuss this privately.

You know you're getting older when you're discussing the issues behind a philosophy dissertation about what is best, temperance or excess and you realise that a young man has no idea what his body's limits are, but you do...

They say after 50 you should always sit down to put your socks on. Trouble is I've needed to sit down since I was 17 or so.

Good, I've got another few months of doing it standing on one foot...

Being English, I'd say moderation in all things including moderation.

There's only one road? Temperance when necessary and excess when convenient ... isn't that called moderation?
