Oh dear, I can remember my parents, once they were retired, would chat with their friends about the relative merits of various restaurants, pubs or towns etc and the lunches /afternoon teas/and dinners they had enjoyed!
I used to scoff, but as I get on, I too talk about restaurants/shops/lunches etc.
Eating out is one of the relatively few pleasures (!) left to us. I had not thought of myself as an awful warning

I tried some trousers on yesterday and gave myself The Awful Warning. I hate well lit, efficient changing room mirrors. No wine last night and plenty of housework this morning!

DH invited his brother and wife to Sunday lunch this week. We hadn't seen them for a year when they came to Sunday lunch before (they don't do invites back). BIL& SIL are only a couple of years older than us respectively but we were shocked at how much weight they had gained and how much older they looked and sounded. They sat on the sofa and never moved except to the dining table (and the loo) for 6 hours despite it being quite nice in the garden and talked incessantly about food and wine and trips to supermarkets hither and yon. They take no exercise of any kind save a short walk for the daily paper (Express!!). I shot out yesterday bought some new trainers and am off to the gym to sign up. I've decided golf and walking aren't enough. They are now known as The Awful Warning.
