The veteran broadcaster Ludovic Kennedy was found dead earlier today. Police have said that he died of natural causes, but there was nothing natural about his death. Ludovic was an old man. Look at the death figures for old men. They are far more likely to die than younger men. Surely it is a fact that old men will die as a result of their lifestyle.
Setting off to the paper shop in the morning and reaching the shop early in the afternoon, the elderly man spends his days dribbling out of various parts of his anatomy and smells of wee. This sick, twisted lifestyle is far from natural and we should not be fooled.
Old men do not lead a natural life and we should not attempt to say anything different. This is not being ageist, simply telling the truth. Thankfully, unlike poofs, oap's are not so quick to Twitter.
