Keeping up Appearances.

I still exercise every day, you know – have done since I was about eleven. I exercise most parts of my body (!) including my face, which I think is important since having a mobile face is so essential in maintaining credibility. You must have noticed that elderly people tend to be a bit static in the visage department, something I shall probably find acceptable when I’m dead but until then I’d prefer to retain some credibility.

I never look in the mirror at such times, though. I have a fertile imagination and suspect I must look like a Melanesian medicine man working to scare away demons in the devilish glow of a tribal camp fire. I don’t think I want to see that.
