Did you know that we old folks are worth a fortune?

We have silver in our hair, gold in our teeth, stones in our kidneys lead in our feet 

and gas in our stomachs!  I became another year older on the 25th Oct, and a few 

changes have come into my life.  Frankly I have become a frivolous old woman!!!

I am seeing six gentlemen every day!  As soon as I wake up Will Power helps me

out of bed, then I go to see Jimmy Riddle and then it is time for breakfast with Mr

Kellogg, followed closely by the refreshing company of Mr Tetley or my other friend

who I only know by the initials P.G.  Then comes someone I don't like at all - Arthur Itis

-he knows he is not welcome but insists on being here and, what is more, stays for 

the rest of the day.

   Even then he does not like to stay in one place, so he takes me from joint to joint.  

After such a hectic day I am glad to go to bed (with Johnny Walker. too!)  What a

hectic life! Oh, yes, I am now flirting with Al Zheimer!

    The vicar came to call the other day and said that at my age I should be thinking

of the hereafter.  So I told him I did all the time.  For no matter where I am - the 

bedroom, the kitchen, the sitting room or the garden, I ask myself "Now what am I

here after?"

    Well, I'll close now and hope that Will Power is your constant companion too, but 

do make sure that his friend Emma Royd does not creep up on you.  And watch out 

for the crafty one -Gerry Atric.
