Jaded with the Forum

As Mick P [long of this Parish] has noted, there comes a time when most of us oldies have reached our sell-by date.
We repeat ourselves, and become predictable. People become accustomed to our views, and so suggest such things as changing the record in some instances. Quite rightly so, in so many cases.
I have found myself making long and without doubt sensible posts, which five minutes after posting I have deleted, or sometimes never even posted in the first place.
But one thing keeps me going. Not the hot fury of people from the USA who find my views in the Padded Cell far from their own World view, or chats about this or that model of Naim [or otherwise] replay kit, but the Music Room, where the sharing of musical discoveries can never fade into dullness, because music itself can never be fully known. In reality none of us ever finds all the music we might love, even in a lifetime, even if we know very well what we do not like.
Just two pennies' worth.
