Elderflowering

David Carlin and Peta Murry in conversation

Bridgewater Memorial Hall Supper Room

Getting older means more vigilance to all the bits of your body that you used to take for granted. It means turning into a carer for your parents. It means being patronised even though you know so much more than when you were young.

Meet David Carlin and Peta Murray, authors of  “How to Dress for Old Age”, a memoir that explores that tricky time of life when getting old means both caring for elders and confronting your own ageing. Do you wither or find new ways to flower? Do you wear sensible shoes or sparkly jumpers?
