Getting old
That’s me. Dark fantasy and horror writer: check. Old git: check. Here’s what the letter from the consultant said about my shoulder X-ray:
‘… shows signs of slight bone deterioration between your collarbone and shoulderblade.’
In other words, as she told me informally, ‘normal for age’. So if I ever want to take up squash (used to play), badminton (ditto), or golf (do me a favour!), I’ll be facing surgery first. Meanwhile, I whinge and moan about getting older (4o on July 28th), take painkillers, and hope it doesn’t get any worse.
But to cheer me up … Masterchef tonight!
