I'm telling you wotching, one of these days I'm just going to show up on your front step. Their secret? IMHO, it's all the damn walking they do.
IRISH PEOPLE are among the happiest and most optimistic in Europe and believe themselves to be the healthiest, according to a major new survey.
Ireland also ranks third out of 27 countries on an index of mental health contained in the quality of life survey carried out by an EU agency.
Only Norway and the Netherlands scored higher in the index, which measured how calm, active, rested and interested in life respondents were.
Some 83 per cent of Irish people said their health was good or very good, higher than in any other European country, even those like France with much-lauded health systems. Yet more than one-third reported difficulties accessing health services, in terms of waiting times for appointments, waiting times to be seen and the cost of medical treatment.
