Too old to rock’n’roll?

Richard Hawley on stage playing a guitar.


Last night I went to my first proper gig since I can’t remember when. The first one in a rock venue and not an arts centre or upstairs in a pub. I didn’t know if I’d still like it.

Days

Bleak North Kent seascape, with breakwaters and a sea wall.


My next door neighbour’s just had another birthday. She’s 102. I worked out she was actually alive before the end of the first World War. That’s a bit mind-boggling.
