Sorry, a few days old.. but..

"AP – File - Britain's oldest man Henry Allingham aged 112 and the last British serviceman alive to have volunteered …"

"Allingham, who was the world's oldest man when he died Saturday at 113, attributed his remarkable longevity to "cigarettes, whisky and wild, wild women.""..

What age was he? Haha

I stayed up for 5 nights then slept for 5 hours. And that month I got an average of an hour of sleep a night. Your move, Sherlock.

Also, the game.
