Raring tutu try old skills again

- Sara Wallis

AS I near 40, the midlife crisis bells are chiming. I’ve been wondering what happened to that person who had... actual hobbies (i.e. not just watching TV for a living). I’m always taxiing my kids to clubs but when did I give up fun stuff? So I’ve gone back to ballet and found a piano teacher. “I’m sure I used to be better,” I told him on Saturday. “Or perhaps you were never as good as you think?” he suggested. Which just goes to show, you can’t even teach an old dog old tricks, let alone new ones.
