Dear Ed,
In Australia, folk your age usually revert to "I'm 83 and a half", as
they used to do in kindergarden:
["I'm 3 and a half", "4 and a half", etc.)
Young blokes like Ingle and I will eagerly await your "I'm 99 and a
half" announcement.
Jazz content: "You Ain't Too Old". (Clarence) Williams Jug Band.
Recorded for Columbia in New York on 7 August 1933.
Very kind regards,
Bill.
