As a matter of fact, I taught three generations how to swim

“I like to keep myself busy, so I often come here a few days a week to have a bit of a lunch in Trinity College. It gets me into town, and it stops me getting ‘coffin fever.’ I love being surrounded by young people and very often miss their company. As a matter of fact, I taught three generations how to swim so I have no difficulties what so ever to start conversations with them. Usually after a few minutes, they would look at me as one of themselves, not as an old guy. It’s all about being open minded no matter the age.”
