My wife passed away a little over three and a half years ago. The house that once had the family in it now only had me in it. I was 70 years old and living alone.
18 months ago I decided that I would downsize and move to a retirement village; somewhere where there would be more people around me. There were a few villages I looked at, but one was a little older and the units were all dual attached (duplexes) and larger than the newer ones. It also seemed to have more residents walking around and more cars parked by the units. This seemed to be the one for me.
The unit I chose was a double bedroom one. This gives me more storage room for life’s junk and also comes with two car parks. One for my daily driver and one for my [1958 Green Triumph TR3A](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/49/Triumph_TR3x.jpg).
