After another afternoon in Kefalonia, lolloping by the
swimming pool under the scorching Greek sun, Mrs Jones and I followed our usual
holiday routine. We returned to our apartment, showered, admired our tanned
skins in the mirror, plastered our flesh with generous splodges of hydrating
lotion, and dressed in smart night-time attire in readiness for the evening
meal in a local restaurant.
Is there a male menopause? As a man in his mid-50s, I have recently become aware of getting older. Increasing age has had a curious effect on my psyche. I am noticing, on an almost daily basis, that I am thinking, feeling and behaving in ways that are starkly different from my youth and earlier adulthood. I will share these experiences on this blog and hope others will join me in describing their own age-related quirks and oddities. I can't be the only one at this "funny age", can I??
