Has he got parents or are they locked in the attic?

4:13pm Friday 6th November 2009


In answer to the person who wrote the letter Pensioners Clog Up My Weekends, what a shame he was not brought up to respect his elders.

Most of the ‘shuffling old duffers’ that he talks about are people who have worked hard to bring families up and now are left alone and lonely.

Going to shopping malls and watching families and children with the hope that they can sit and converse with someone for a while is a treat.

Loneliness is a terrible thing, and I hope one day it will affect him.

Has he got parents or are they locked in the attic? What a shame he did not have the nerve to print his name,
T Cook
‘Old duffer’ from Bromley
