There is a place just up the road from Ditchling in Hassocks run by Age Concern which is an Old Persons Heaven. I go there once a month to have my feet done by a kind and gentle chiropodist, but I can also have: a tasty lunch, waited on by women like Ethel and Doris who are older than I am, (the chef is a Sumo wrestler ! ) there are free paperbacks on offer, an excellent charity shop, I could do Keep Fit, have a Sing Song, go on an Outing, play Scrabble or Bingo, all is provided by the cheerfulest kindest men and women you could hope to meet.    My neighbours at lunch were all in their nineties and enjoying life. What a treat.
