What do you think gets better with age?
Aside from beef, cheese, and wine ? Why, me, of course.
Who doesn’t prefer a 25 – 35 day aged steak. So tender and full of flavour.
Or, how about a mature, vintage cheddar, complimented with a nice wine.
And then on to me. As I have aged, my palate has improved, allowing me to appreciate the aforementioned beef, cheese, and wine.
But, as I have aged and my palate improved, so my confidence has also grown. In part, this is down to my own life experiences but also my years at IBM, where they nurtured and encouraged me to be more self reliant.
Ageing has, in turn, led to my growing intolerance, of idiots, and of loud, rude people with an enlarged sense of self-importance. I’m not sure if this is actually a positive result of ageing, but I have convinced myself that it is.
