This game old boy plans to go every year whilst he's at all mobile:

GO OLD TIMER! He escaped! Was he the same guy who also parachuted in? I couldn't read the story.

Glad he went. And I hope the old boy will be able to go many more times.

From the ferry line he got a free pass for the rest of his life ;)

I thought to update this, Bernard Jordan was a Royal Navy lieutenant on D-Day. This year, when he returned to the care home, he had dozens of people to greet him including these two well-built girls, and then received 2500 birthday cards.
Look forward to your advancing years then!
