    I didn’t think I’d care - I breezed past 60 - but I find that I do. It’s partly that I’ve teetered into the category of “elderly”. It’s partly that The End is looming. My mother died at 90. Dementia took her last five years. I’m 73. I try not to do the maths.

    Yes, it’s true you “get more admired”. “Isn’t she marvellous for her age!!” Boak.
