I was heading to an Antiques Fair. Well that is a bit of a giveaway I hear you say and I guess they do appeal to a certain demographic.
"Hello can I have a ticket please."
"Are you a pensioner?"
"No, I don't think so but heading that way I guess"- I take my Panama off to reveal my new grey look.
He hands me a Pensioner's ticket and some extra change.
I am at once shocked and grateful.
"Thank you" I say with a big smile, "that is kind".
So whether it is Pensioner or a member of the Golden Age Club, Crumbly Chicks or new Middle Agers there is the inevitable entry point which is how the world sees you.
I grabbed my Pensioner's ticket and vowed to spend my extra two dollars doing something deliciously wicked. New feather for my hat found on the ground.
