P.S. Looking for a good laugh? Comedian Daryl Peebles is bringing his show Stand Up for Seniors … but not necessarily on the bus to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival (26 March – 6 April). While he’s in town, he’s also offering free presentations on The Value of Humour in Ageing to interested groups. If your Probus Club, U3A, Men’s Shed, or community group would like to host him, let me know, and I’ll pass on the details!

​Silent Disco Walking Tour​ Groove through Melbourne’s bustling streets, belting out disco classics Sing through the city

“ A group of about 30 seniors met at Federation Square. We all put earphones on through which you could hear great disco music and also the voice of Cat directing us as to what moves matched the songs we could hear. ​ We followed the leader and danced and sang our way through the streets of the City, ending up in front of Myers. It was such fun letting loose, not worrying about anything but the joy and laughter brought about by being in a crowd of people totally enjoying themselves. ​Read more here.​ — Terrie

“ We would never have thought of coming here, and we had such a nice time. ​ At 3 pm on a weekday, we practically had the place to ourselves. We headed outside to the balcony and admired the views across the Yarra river and down towards Southbank. While it was a little windy up there that day, plenty of tables inside offered the same vibrant atmosphere. ​ We found a cosy corner with very comfy armchairs and enjoyed a wind-down drink and snack after our big day of exploring. ​Read more here.​ — Terrie
