Dear Uncle Drago,
I find myself at a loss. The certainties I used to take for granted are now just so much insubstantial metaphysics.
I was a God, King and Country man.
Anything I was required to do, which I believed I should do, that it was my duty to do, well, I did it. No one did it better.
Now I wonder whether it was worth it.
I am not bothered about who I offed - they were as bad as me.
In honesty I wonder if I have lived longer than I should have. It was never the plan.
Still, I should not complain too much. You would not believe the fanny, and the cars. The cars were something else.
The problem is the other folks in the old folks home do not believe a word I say. I don't have any relatives to come visit me. All my old buddies are brown bread. Even the silly tart who was the boss's secretary eventually got married.
Songs on Sunday just does not cut it.
And the new lot, is this what it was all for?
Anyway, the new gerontologist is coming. I hope she is more fun than the last. I had to call in some special favours after the last.
