In work last week I was introduced to a somewhat attractive new recruit.

What a lovely young lady, I thought.

My world took a bit of a turn when the woman introducing her said "do
you remember, you took her gran out once?"

It's a bit sobering when you realize you are not simply the oldest
person in the office, but that you're old enough to be the grandfather
of at least two of your junior colleagues.

But those colleagues find it to be a source of endless amusement, so
it all balances in the end. What's even more fun is proving that age
and experience beats youth and enthusiasm every time.

Niche, but I've seen that plotline before. Certainly beats the "But I'm your step-mom plotline".
