Thankfully Chris Convertible I’m still here as it was 1948 not 1848 !
The Swedes start Death Cleaning in their 40/50s and I’ve started but hopefully can stay a good while longer ……..
Things do change, you think you had the answers. We have some wonderful antique ‘brown’ furniture, French Armoire, Welch Dresser, Clarice Cliff dinner sets, antique Art Nouveau glass wear etc etc. You can now buy brown furniture at less than IKEA tut and pottery who knows. The secret is to just enjoy what you bought and like and I failed with being too busy to enjoy the last Morgan. The kids want very little of any of it !! Think I will print Boomers still Rock bumper stickers for my friends .
We possibly learn too late but we are trying to make amends.
Luv MM
PS Do Baby Boomers feel the country is in terminal decline, a Doom Loop economically, as every time I spend time abroad it does tend to make me feel we have lost something in our British collective psyche………
