...and for years I was telling people rhat I was a year younger than Mr. T (39, last I heard)...




I never could see any very good reason to age much beyond 42.

Well, there is the pension

In Ireland at 66 we get a free travel pass.

They got that in the GDR as well. All pensioners were free to leave the country

60 in London (for the free travel) - probably the rest of the UK, too.
Actual retirement age is a bit like a donkey and a stick at the moment. When people get close they move it away a bit.

I'm like a the older I get, the more I smell

re 25:

I'm of the last vintage not affected by the changes to our system of taking early retirement (at 60). For that reason alone I felt obliged to take early retirment - in solidarity with all those younger than me who have to wait

Dont see how prof! something that has been soaked in alcohol that long cant smell ..................

Too right!
Fine old should be stored in fine old rum .
Both before and after

I can see now that I was confusing VC and VV. It's lil's fault for giving her daughters such similar names.

One is named after a motorcycle and the other is after a cat, I really cannot see how different their names could be

I'll just leave this here.

Oh, and this too.

Do you shudder, lil, every time someone says "ee I'm dead chuffed"?

*giggles*


I like those links, Baron!

Gnomon,

As Chuff is VC's cat, that saying doesn't actually bother me, and VC is obviously very virtuous

Is VV very virtuous too? Or vastly voluminous?

*squeals with laughter*


'Vastly voluminous'! I like that one!

*Only catches part of the conversation*
Ooh! Does she glow in the dark?

Glow in the dark?

She's definitely getting BIGGER!
