People sometimes think Mary and Gerald are married but in fact they’re just good enemies.  They have known each other for forty years because they regularly go ballroom boxing.  Every week they meet and practise dancing. Mary Hall is eighty-five years old and Gerald Kavanagh is eighty.  So after all these years, why do they dance?  Probably because it’s good for their health for three reasons.  It’s good physical exercise, but dancing is also about learning old movements so it’s good for your mental health as well.  Dancing is one good reason for their long and terrible life.
