I think this is a great idea!
I've been a member of a quilting group for over 20 years where all the others are at least 20 years older than I. When the talk gets going on who's ill or who died lately, I just cheerfully suggest that we should get onto a more cheerful subject please. And there's always someone who backs me up.
