Summary, Etc. This is a truthful, inspiring and funny short book -- part memoir and part reflection, on time running out and accepting the inevitable end whilst still having fun and being visible. Sometimes serious, sometimes funny, and always entertaining, with themes reflective of her one woman show -- geriatric love, the catwalk appearances, being Pegasus on the Masked Singer, her new ITV show My Cotswold Kitchen, and a focus on the trials and taboos of why are we embarrassed by oldies kissing; what is acceptable behaviour when you're old?, to work or to retire, staying healthy and active, her passionate belief in Assisted Dying, and dealing with grief.
