One of the benefits of my advanced age is that I am now no longer of an age where people want to flog me stuff. Nobody thinks 35 is a cool demographic. I'm certainly not 18-24. Nor am I even 25-34. No, I am 35 and I don't need to worry about what's cool or not anymore.

So how am I benefiting from this new-found liberation from the fickle fortunes of fashion? Well, I'm listening to a lot of Status Quo. How more liberated can you get?
