Janita, Rosie, and Frank, reflect on skills, habits, and pastimes they would like to bring back into modern life. The discussion begins thoughtfully, with Rosie sharing her joy in organizing clothes and plants, making sweets, and finding calm in everyday tasks. Frank adds the charm of handwritten letters and postcards, noting how much meaning lies in the slowness and care of such gestures in contrast to today’s digital exchanges.
From there, the tone shifts into playful territory. The group imagines quirky “revived skills” like competitive marshmallow stacking or perfectly timed speed naps, complete with the silly outfits they might wear while attempting them. Their lighthearted banter about potential mistakes—toppling marshmallow towers or snoozing through the finish line—shows their humour and creativity.
Together, the conversation blends the practical with the whimsical, highlighting how old traditions and small acts of joy can still find a place in modern life, whether for personal well-being, meaningful connection, or simply for the fun of it.
