WHEN YOU GET TO MY AGE “Morning.” “Good morning, how are you today?” “Bordering on absolutely brilliant.” “Good for you. Me too.” “In that case good for you, too.” “Thank you. Anywhere I can direct you to today?” “Well, when you get to my age it’s always handy to know where the toilets are.” “Sure.
