This reminds me of an article in the paper the other day about an eighty year old blogger in Greece who's become quite a hit on the internet with her life stories and take on modern times.

I love reading her stories. I'm a nostalgia freak anyway but we ought to encourage our parents and grandparents to talk about their lives - it's part of our cultural heritage. Anything they've learnt about life.

Yeah I like the sassy oldies, not so much the grumpy ones.
I remember being in Singapore and stopping to chat to this old man in the market. I enquired what he felt about the mixture of new and ancient in Singapore as it is indeed a mixed landscape. Expecting him to lament days of old Singapore he was far from it and welcomed the new and was upbeat over it. Have to admire anyone who embraces change and thrives.

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
