Re: My Granny the Escort - I'm shocked!
I didn't see the programme - meant to record it but forgot. However, my view is - the lady in her 80s - jolly good luck to her!! I always had a plan to go wild in my old age (a la Jenny Joseph poem) after all, what has one got to lose, at that age, really?
I am going to eat all the cream cakes I can stuff in my pie hole, have sex with anyone who is willing, and all in all let it all hang out. For at that age, I feel it really is "eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow....."
I did a lot of risk taking in my teens - hitch hiked long distance on my own - stuff I wouldn't want my own daughters to have done. But I learned - most people AREN'T out to do you harm. And if, at 84, one meets one who is - well, it might not be so very much worse than spending one's twilight days in a nursing home. (casting NO aspersions on nursing homes, but just no desire to be in one, particularly).
