Anyway, when you are of a ‘certain age’, you do not appreciate reminders about the increasing likelihood of evidence of physical frailty, or reduction of function.
So when, for insurance purposes, you ‘phone the garage to find out the registration number of your new Mini Cooper * you do not want to be told the final letters are KYJ.
Because you know that your peers are going to find endless mirth in reminding you.
