24. Listen with Grandmother (i) Belgrano suburb, Buenos Aires

On being a widow

Granny (90), knitting, in reflective mood:  ... and there’s been no one to scratch my back anymore since my husband died.  (Clicks her tongue) I’ve got to use a knitting needle.

Visiting distant cousin (78):  Mmmm...I know what you mean, I use a ruler.
