I know we’ve reached the age but surely…
Last month, I was at dinner party locally and one of the guests ( a noisy retired person) produced the engineer’s drawings or plans for his new knee joint and then pulled up his trousers. It wasn’t a pretty sight!
Well, funnily enough, I just didn’t want to know and certainly not during dinner. I like a little frothy gossip, news about local
restaurants and perhaps advice on a good film.
If all we do is discuss our most lugrubrious ailments, dining out will become more like watching ‘Casualty’.
Anyway, if we could avoid medical dramas in the B.C. I’d much rather read about naughty goings on.
Yours truly,
(name supplied)
