Spot That Slide…and Stop It!
Ageing Well, But The Odd Problem?

Spot That Slide…and Stop It!

Bodies create their own version of rules. One of them seems to be something like, “If there is a problem find an alternative solution, something easier”. But dont bother to tell your owner, just do it.

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!”

Lovely….However what was really interesting was that it had never occurred to them.

Museums Waking Up to the value of their 70+ Market? They should!

The Future is not just about a Museum being Friendly to older people, but working with them as valuable and essential partners.

Curiosity is Surprised by Life in Fife.

Time is short when you are in your 83rd year….and so many places still unvisited.

Reaching 83? Lifestyle Plan B!

Reaching 83? Lifestyle Plan B!

Seriously, I am not worried about the body stuff, except for total concentration on comfort and ease. Beginning to think that by 83 bodies need cherishing not bullying.

Restaurants Age Friendly? Or Unwittingly Ageist? You Judge!
Let's Challenge Unthinking Ageism

Restaurants Age Friendly? Or Unwittingly Ageist? You Judge!

Unthinking Ageism in Restaurants? Yes! Why havent they thought of these things? Because until you are old, it is very difficult to imagine what being old is like. They need to know. We need to tell them.
