Nah, not having that Ma! You're way too wry & sprightly, gallivanting & zipping about all over the shop still. What we're talking about here are the creeping pedestrians, white cloth cap or headscarf regardless of weather, scented with lavender & taking up the whole street as they shuffle along gumming a boiled sweetie, making unpredictable stops in front of shop windows or just stopping dead for no apparent reason right in the middle of a thoroughfare, then tsking & tutting at the audacity & impatience of the modern whippersnappers as you try to edge past them to try to get wherever you're going with your limited time.
