The joys of getting old(er) – discuss

[frequent]

We're all sceptical of arsenal. However, can you be "highly" sceptical? I'd have thought being sceptical is a binary condition (like pregnancy) - either you're sceptical or you're not. Although my scepticism is lifelong as I grow older I find Stoicism more helpful. In that regard Marcus Aurelius is a great model - especially in his attraction to much younger men, sadly suppressed (I've failed in that respect)

This IS disappointing. By now I'd expect Tenille to have chimed in advising that "Although my scepticism is lifelong as I grow older I find Stoicism more helpful" is better expressed as "Although my scepticism is lifelong, as I grow older I find Stoicism more helpful"

I speak perfect English ...
