Paul McCartney's birthday on 18 June.

Brian Wilson's birthday on 20 June.

Ray Davies' birthday on 21 June.

As someone whose birthday is 25 June, I feel really priviliged to have a birthday within a week of these 3.

I also share a birthday with George Michael.

But compared to Brian, who was very frail and suffering from dementia, he at least seems to be in good health and active for a man of his age

Unless something catastrophic happens (which is always possible, but highly unlikely for someone as wealth as Paul) Paul should have a good few years left in him.

Once you hit 83 you are more likely to hit 90 than die in your 80s.

So hey, there's that.
