Meeting in the Town Hall. Me, Milton, a few guys from the IT Department. Trying not to talk about the new Town Hall redevelopment. Trying to concentrate on part of a new network. I glance over and catch my reflection in a computer screen. I look round the table. It feels like five minutes ago that we were youngish, go-getting, can-do.
Just five minutes ago, surely?
I wonder who these old men are, quietly waiting for retirement or worse...

i'm hoping that this evening finds you in a less melancholy frame of mind, sugarpie! ;~D xoxoxox
Thanks savannah, you know I like to wallow in a bit of melancholy. :-)
Oh, Kevin, that hits kinda close to home.
I, too, enjoy a bit of melancholy, but I'm off now to stare at myself in the mirror.
Pearl
p.s. No worries. I shall always love you. :-)
'old men'
Oh no! Not you!
Pearl and Pat: thank you ladies.
