Quite a lot of us here have aches and twinges. I’ve had people offer to tie my shoelaces so I didn’t have to bend.

The clincher though came this week I received an invitation to a 60th birthday party lovely I hear you say (I’ve put my hearing aids in) what’s wrong with that? It’s from someone I used to babysit (childsit properly).

Is there something that tells you times wingéd chariot is on its way?
