Safari time. Staying Adventurous at 84?

The viciousness of their fighting and the sound of a lioness crunching an impala leg bone from 30 feet away is rather disturbing… bone chilling!

Magic walk at 80 +. Yes! Childhood fun and curiosity are still inside you!

What a magical tree. So eerie! Love the way the roots look like a huge dragon. She has an eye, a mouth and even claws. Anything could be in that hole! Dragons eggs?And why has it got a Red Cross?

Let's Challenge Unthinking Ageism

Fear of Ageing? So Strange! Where Has It Come From?

At 84 my Frailty Score is 3. Good? Bad? Yours?
Ageing Well, But The Odd Problem?

At 84 my Frailty Score is 3. Good? Bad? Yours?

Where are you on the Frailty Scale?
High enough?
Something you should be doing about it?
Get back to the optimum curve?
Make sure you dont slide?

And be #AgeProud about it!

Caught Out! Unwitting Ageism – About Chairs!
Let's Challenge Unthinking Ageism

Caught Out! Unwitting Ageism – About Chairs!

Stranded! Beached whale feeling. But that rapidly turned to chuckles.

“I have to ask for help to get up from a chair in the office of an organisation that espouses Age Friendly places!”

They sound like horror stories. But reading them gives you a shiver of relief. Realise just how lucky this generation of older people are. Phew!

So here I am, Joyce at 80+…
