I can't believe I'm 70.
How far off 70 are you then?
I can't do anything about it, I am 70 whether I like it or not, and I don't like it.
Well, here I am for my 70th birthday. I can't believe that I have got to 70. It just seems five minutes since I was on my push bike, and you know, life just goes so fast, doesn't it? I've been coming down here for a fair old while, we always came on a Sunday night. There were always a few characters, a few locals who would sit around that fire. Sadly, they are all gone now, but I am still here, and so there you go.
It has been great fun, top men. Thank you all for coming and cheers.
It is a young fellas' game. I am almost 70 now, so I have got to think about what comes next. It is something the family are discussing at the moment to see where the future lies for everyone.
It is nice for me to pass on my shears.
