I am crumbling in sync with old Hackney.

If the landscape changes, then I don't know who I am either. The landscape is a refracted autobiography. As it disappears you lose your sense of self.

Old people are scary. And I have to face it. I am old and I am scary.

I am getting old, so I really don't like clocks.

I am not a fancy cook or an ambitious cook. I am a plain old cook.

In actual life I am a grumpy old bag.
