Thinking back, I'm amazed at all the activities I went in for in my youth: Not, to be strictly honest, through any great inner desire to hike, cycle, sail, climb or jog, but brought about more by desires for various chaps who went in for these things. So, perhaps the time has come to recapture at least some of that youthful zing.
Friends do not help much, but I ignore remarks like: 'I get all the exercise I need polishing floors', 'You're bound to do yourself mischief', 'You've to expect a few twinges now and then", 'You look fine to me' and even 'Well, my friend took up water-skiing and before he even got out of the sports shop, he tripped over his new skis and broke a leg!'
