Hi Grock
people were on about my grey hair the other day and that I should die it. I agreed, told them I couldn't find the right shade of grey.
I thought you were 21 Jopsy not over 28.

Grey hair looks so distinguised on men! And men definitely age better than women.

Try the dancing Jopsy -I'd recommend it to (almost) anyone. Unfortunatly I had to give up when studying took over but it was always one of the best 2hrs of my week!

Herby, no more secrets I'm afraid. (apart from my secret life as an under cover operative for MI5) :wink:

"just because there's snow on the roof, doesn't mean the boiler's gone out!"

Hi Zena

My nana used to say "just cos there's snow on the roof, don't mean the fire's gone out"

Or "just cos the boilers rusty don't mean there's no embers left"

Bless her, lived till she was 95. What a woman!!!!!!!!!
Lots of love

Lizzie

Lizzie, never met her, but I can tell she was very wise, both from her sayings and from her granddaughter. :oops:

I got educated latterly in life with the open university, one of the particpants on the degree course was seventy two, he said that his motivation was to learn something new, he intended to (and to the best of my knowledged did) graduate at the age of 78.

Later on my Social Work Course another chap started training at 52, he said after a life time of being told what to do by over qualified young whippersnappers it was time to get even, he qualified at 55 and is still working in the profession now at 60. Lets here it for the olds, at 47, I feel I still have the best yet to come.
