You know you are getting on a bit

You know you are getting on a bit

when you can feel a slight pain in your knees

even before the long and gruelling walk through the woods

You know you are getting on a bit

when you wander around your flat aimlessly

trying to remember what it was you stood up to do

You know you are getting on a bit

when you find out that someone you knew died

and you no longer feel the need to go to a bar and drink whisky two days straight.

(David, Tomaž and Maruša, we did end the night by rising a glass of whisky in your memory)
