The passage of time

For many years now, four or five of us, long-time friends, have gathered in a certain hostelry at around 10pm on a Friday evening. Through those decades and centuries, our discussions have touched on countless topics, but mostly, football, rugby, cricket and the village hot topic of the day.

Last Friday we found ourselves discussing Inheritance Tax Planning. That, guys, is when you know you’re getting old.

    My best mate of many years and I had a similar discussion t’other day. Not about Inheritance Tax but about age. When we first met it was all lusting after boybands and other unsuitable behaviour; now it’s discussing the menopause. Which is possibly something you really didn’t need to know.

    As it happens, you’re wrong, Alison. Primavera Blackstone is approaching that stage in her life. Although I have postponed it annually, there will come a time when she must have her first hot flush. Therefore any tips will be welcomed.
