When I'm 64......

Growing old together
Park Life.....

Two generations of couples - wonder if the younger couple in the distance will be together when they grow old and grey......
Ironically, both couples are looking over the river, at a children's play park!

Wonder if they themselves are contemplating their lives as they watch the children play - will they grow up to be old, grey and happy - who knows!

Think the couple look older than 64, but when the Beatles wrote their song, I am sure they had this type of "old" image in their head, bit more psychedelic though!!! Just so happens the Beatles are one of my son's favourite bands (or has been for a long time) so he will have grown up with them too. How can anyone not like the Beatles?

So to finish off with, if you fancy, have a hop over with this link to listen to the Beatles "When I'm 64", go on and knock yourself out.... you know you want to!!!
boot camp

  5. Great image, and I hope they are well over 64, as I am fast approaching that age! Don't feel like it, and never imagined myself as that age when the Beatles came out with the song. Time flies!

    Hope to hear from you again and that you continue to enjoy seeing my entries - big hug and kiss to you all!
