Rodger Pettichord Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hi all. I'm learning that one of the biggest perks of being a senior, senior citizen is that I can say no to pretty much anything I don't want to do. Anything requiring a tie?--No. Anything requiring extended time with unpleasant company?--No. Anything requiring attentiveness past my shrinking boundaries?--No. And so forth. My question is--as an Old Coot, what things do you enjoy saying 'NO" to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 That reminds me Rodger. You wouldn't get into quite a lot of our golf clubs even nowadays without a tie and jacket on. Even in out humble club, if you're eating in the dining room you would be expected to wear a tie. Never mind though, if you come over to visit we could take you to a fellow golfers restaurant in town and he is pretty liberal. He'll even take well behaved dogs, so you should be alright.

Rodger Pettichord Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 Speaking of ties, John. Many years ago, a friend and I went to the Savoy in London for lunch. He was wearing a tie and I wasn't. He was admitted and I wasn't. The gatekeeper's 'NO' to me was once of the most absolute I've ever received.

Guest Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 You should have gone to our favourite Chinese restaurant in Soho. Anything goes and the Chinese never wear ties. And the food is wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
