| Where did you find that? Must admit I'm in at least two minds about it: (1) severe distaste for seeing the ladder pulled up shortly after I'm aboard; (2) awareness of the very generous current qualifying age of 60 - most people who choose to retire that early do so because they can afford to, except for those forced to by disability or other severe illness - in which case they would or should qualify for the disabled person's freedom pass anyway. I wouldn't regard any reasonably healthy person under 65 as truly elderly and in need of neighbours keeping an eye out. |
