Today is the funeral of 'Tante Bé (aunt Bé, the sister of my grandmother) She became very, very old. When I asked her a few months ago how she felt, she replied with: "Life is tough ! "

She used to tell me how much Amsterdam had changed over the years and how, back then, when she was my age, she would secretly drink Dutch gin together with the men in the bar out of a tea cup, because women weren't supposed to hang around in pubs and drink liquor.
Many things have changed in the century she has lived in:
She was a Dutch actrice, here a little movie for the Dutch viewers:
