Happy birthday to Alec Holden! 100 today and £25K better off
How's about that?
Not only reaching 100 years old and getting a telegram from the Queen, but winning £25,000 for it?
He sounds like a nice bloke, with a cheeky sense of humour, may he have many more birthdays in the years to come.

I'd love to have my faculties when I'm 100.

You'll be lucky to have yours at 31 
Fair play to him though - bit of cheek goes a long way

Good luck to him - anyone who can fleece the bookies deserves a big thumbs up - even more so, for being 100!! Many more happy returns
(Double or quits?? )

I'm hoping mine will turn up by the time I'm 100.
They might come in handy one day.

Hey, if I last that long, I'll just be happy to have my own hair...
Obviously, I'm aware that I haven't got any now, but medical science advances, you know

Hopefully at least 8 years longer if he gives any of it to his sons!

You can. Buy a wig. While it won't be part of your body, you will own it, so it will be your hair in that way. It also has the advantage that if it's dirty, you can bung it in with the washing.

I'm going for a haircut soon, so if you like, I can post you the cuttings.
How would you look with brown hair with lighter tips?

Depends - can't look much worse than the shiny slap that I usually have

Washing? Mrs Nug already moans when something gets stuck in the filter after I've not taken it out of my pocket - I'll never get away with an entire head of hair
