As numbers dwindle, one becomes more conscious of the value to be found in being playful with one’s contemporaries.
Still drawing breath? Still compos mentis? Able to play games, gossip, reminisce and have fun?
Time doesn’t stand still. Back in the day, observing senior citizens playing dominoes and shooting the breeze seemed quaint.
Some of them were disdainful when they noticed my interest in clothes. ‘You reach a certain age and that counts for nothing’, they said.
Do all old codgers see things the same way?
