“We started the society because it’s hard for older ladies to meet new people.”
Whilst in a restaurant in London this week
I saw a table of ladies swathed in purple clothes wearing red hats over beautiful
white hair. Some of the hats were
functionally warm, others were various shapes of a trilby and one rather
flamboyant lady wore a red flower and feather in her hair.
They were giggling like schoolgirls and
totally oblivious to people watching them.
They didn’t give two hoots; they were having fun.
Curiosity got the better of me, so I approached
and asked who they were.
