Former Beard of the Year Jay Rayner with prudent advice on how to live as a alte kaker*

Occasionally, I hear of colleagues and friends a few years my senior who have retired to the country. This is not sensible. As we get older and bits of us stop working, we do not want to be out in the wilds, saluting every magpie that passes, and luxuriating in the bucolic. We want to be in the heart of things, close to a chemist, primary health care and other people.
