Eeeeeeeeee, when I were a lad...down pit or up chimney...sixpence AND change back for t'bus!...bit o' respect...nowt but fields...I'm eighty-two, you know.
Ruth, respect has nothing to do with age,it involves manners, courtesy,humility,there are disreptful people of all ages,it appears there are one or two of them from that degree course,I seem to remember an older person was disrespectful to you at Sidmouth.
still, it would appear we now live in age,where the cult is youth,never mind the experience and wisdom that older people can give,todays mantra is youth we must encourage youth,never mind anybody else.
encouraging youth is laudable,but it is not very wise to do this and at the same time ignore the experience and acquired skills of older people.
