Re: Ageism in Oxford???????????????????????????????

Ageism rears its ugly head again. I've had the same question when I tried to arrange walking in Edinburgh. I just never answered the question. The nice thing about our Edinburgh Supper Club is that age, status etc. are never raised. We just enjoy each others company for what it is. Age is relative. Last year at 61 I won an age discrimination case against a FTSE 100 company who after interviewing me for a senior position rejected me because I was 'not dynamic enough' - the case was helped by the fact that the interviewer(in his forties) fell asleep twice during the interview! Point to the Saga generation I think.
