You wake up in the morning with a bunch of aches and pains for no apparent reason. I’m not sick; I didn’t do a lot of strenuous exercise yesterday; I haven’t even been lying in a cold draft. I just ache. Ah well, maybe a hot shower will help.
Still, in writing this post I have learned that while in British English “draft” and “draught” mean very different things, in American English the same spelling is used for both. And I can’t be that old if I can still learn things.
I prefer to say, “I’m no longer young.” 😉 I recommend a cup of hot tea (or whatever), BTW!
Kendall dear, I have been “no longer young” for a very long time. I’m now old, at least in body.
