I did not insinuate that anyone who lived alone was a winky.
Certainly, were my wife to die before me I would live alone (well, with the possible exception of a cat).
What I did do was say that an awful lot of people seem to think, nowadays, that if you live alone you must be a winky.
My mother has 2 female friends who live together.
They live together because they are both widowed and they have been best friends
from school. Theirs names are Fanny and Gay(e) and they have had really
disgusting things thrown at their house, at their car and at them.
