I WILL be staying in as much as possible in January and February despite the number of excellent talks given by local groups.
I am another year older and ramps and slopes in this cold weather are too much of a challenge for me and my wheelchair, as is waiting at cold bus stops and sitting in cold venues.
A couple of decades ago a brisk trudge through the snow and sliding through the snow and sliding on ice was fun. As Agatha Christie wrote 'the older you get, the more things are crossed off your list'.
