Amusing Insights into the Value of Vintage Grannies

 I should of course be extolling the virtues of travelling in our area but right now with covid-19 having slammed the lid on travel and many of our colleagues and friends seeking alternative means of income, especially if age is not in your favour Sani Pass Mountain Lodge

Am I an Antique or a Vintage?

An ‘Antique’ is a term used to describe something of 100 years or older whereas ‘Vintage’ is usually something between 50 and 100 years having a high value because of age and quality.

So, therefore, I am vintage! 

To gain a clear understanding of Antiques and or Vintages I delved into “The Five Signs of a Valuable Antique” published somewhere under Antiques for Dummies.

I’m assuming that my cosmetic dentistry would be considered an addition as would the implants and uplifts but would the facelift and be considered a deletion? At this stage deletions in the weight department are without a doubt fewer and fewer as the years pass so there could be some value in that area. 

Are there any advantages for employers to toss a bone to the desperate, pleading Vintage grannies?

Shall we firstly consider the ethical issues? Surely employment must be offered to those with growing families and fresh skills? No doubt, but if the vintages no longer have an income, we’re more likely to drain your hospitals and health schemes as we won’t be able to afford medical aid. We’ll become a burden on the majority of your workforce as they’ll feel obliged to drop a coin or two into our misshapen hats as they leave the building, wait, leave what building as they’re all working from home.  

Ah, caught you out there, if we’re all working from home none of your clients will see our sagging torsos or the odd cabbage or two sprouting from our chins. They may just be surprised by the sharp wit and hours of dedication given to service their requirements.

We’re boring though, as we’ve no boyfriends or toddler’s potty habits to discuss.
