It amazes me that I’ve got this old and still feel exactly the same inside.I didn’t wake up on the morning of my last big birthday thinking ‘Blimey ! I really must buy some James Last and Carpenters CDs !’ At this rate I’ll be the only one in the old folks’ home wearing a Linkin Park teeshirt.

I agree it’s an attractive idea,but sadly there’s not much of a market for old bats.

Zero visibility would be a big improvement where I live too.

I’ve been married since 1066 ( or at least that’s what it feels like ) so I’d like a present like that ! Best thing I ever got,though not strictly speaking a present,was my daughter,born when I was 40 and thought I’d never be a Mum.Everyone say Aaaah ! Or possibly what she’d say herself,pass the sick bag.

So that’s why my GP asked whether I smoked last time I saw him.He asked about my Dad at the same time.Does that mean he’d have been paid a little something twice ?

You lot never miss a trick,do you ?I saw in today’s paper a medical expert who says couples wanting to concieve should have wild passionate sex as if they’d only just met. What’s the betting his wife’s trying for a baby ?

Sorry made a hash of that last post.It’s not my day today.

[QUOTE=Pondskater;1384004]I watched the Simpsons with a friend’s 14-year-old daughter – we never laughed at the same thing. Tough to write comedy to appeal to several audiences at once.

I like the incidental characters: “Hello, I’m Rupert Murdoch, the Billionaire tyrant” which 14 year-olds don’t think is funny.[/QUOT If you watch it regularly you’ll see why it’s so popular.Perfect relaxation and a very British sense of humour.
