When you're 89, everything is at the last minute. If I were his age I wouldn't even buy green bananas.

Besides, the nursing home's story sounds like self-serving ass-covering garbage to me. It's in the UK, and probably run by the NHS, which does nannyism the way Bloomberg wishes he could do nannyism.
