He said "Bounce" not Bonce. You need to see a hearing doctor. I did ~ 'bout me tinitus and he said, after exhaustive tests, that I have the hearing of a thirty year old. cloud9:
No we did not discuss the rest of my body. evil:
Suffice it to say I will still be listening to you lot long after the rest of me has gone.

Besides the sprog is a lovely young lady with many good qualities.

Does it make you feel old? And perhaps a teeny bit balder?
I know my Mother is about to have a breakdown due to the fact that I am 30 next year.

To be fair Wenchy, there wasnt anything in the OP that was belittling really. You just said that the present list had nothing under £50 and you didnt know them that well. noooo:

It is the children that are always the giveaway. My mother always claimed to be 39 but eventually conceded to being 41 until I pointed out that I was 35 eeek:

They started them early in the days of the ark didn't they. eeek:

My parents added a year to their wedding anniversaries. I always wondered why there were no wedding photos. My Mum was 6 months pregnant noooo:

Which ark are you taling about Wenchy, Noah's or the Ark of the Covenant. whistle:

After my Grandparents died and we were going through their paperwork my Dad discovered that his parents hadn't actually got married until he was about six years old. eeek:
-
At the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm we never got to meet our parents sad24: I think my father may have been a straw .... at least that was the rumour
-
Awwwww. Bless. Happy Birthday Miss Piggy!
28... noooo:
My oldest is 14!! point:
I had her when I was very young as well. whistle:
Having said that at least you're over the teenage years - pure hell!!! All strop and cheek. ::)

My younger sister got married when pregnant. She was given a hard time. When she confronted my Mum with the evidence of her own state at the time of her wedding (1938) my Mum's retort was "Well so was your grandmother" eeek:
Thomas Hardy anyone?

My oldest is 40 this year. The youngest was 7 in January.
It is known as the triumph of hope over experience ::)
Or as my ex-wife put it so neatly when told .... "Well, they say there is no fool like an old fool"
-
Why is that saying always associated with maleness.
Has anyone here ever met a woman who admitted to being foolish?
I think not
-
Women don't do foolish ..... they have hormones instead.
-
Yeah, right noooo:
-
My mother always claimed to be 39 but eventually conceded to being 41 until I pointed out that I was 35
I can't see the stigma being that different between her being pregnant at the age of 4 or 6. rubschin:

I was struggling with that too|!
-
Women don't do foolish ..... they have hormones instead.
Which means it isn't our fault and we can't be blamed for it! cloud9:

Yes ... My youngest is seven ... he is indeed Uncle to my Granddaughter who is 18.
When she was younger she had a great deal of trouble getting her head round the concept. Now he delights in telling her that she must do as he tells her 'cos she is his neice.
My Children are
40yo Son .... his children are 18(F), 16(M) and 12(M)
38yo Daughter her child is 13(F)
14yo Daughter (nearly 15)
9yo Son (nearly 10)
7yo Son (just)

I knew a guy who ended up as his own uncle. Mind you, it was in Norfolk

Not surprising then.
Sorry about the Typo Nick ..... I will try harder no matter what the pressures of vomitting children, reluctant heating engineers, oil delivery drivers and appointments with the County Council to collect nomination papers for the upcoming elections (No Wenchy that is not Chinese).

Are you standing again? eyes:
-
Serious answer is no ..... not me because I prefer to publish and edit the community magazine and to do that I have to remain independent in order that I may criticise at will. As a council member I would have to forfiet that ability.
Because the locals display sheep like tendencies I feel it necessary to round up a few volunteers to put forward as candidate otherwise we get no election, the same old crew nominate one another and nothing ever changes. Four years ago I did this, forced a ballot and got roundly slagged off by certain members of the council for my pains. It was the first actual ballot in 27 years. I intend to do the same this year so I have my "new" candidates that the local council know nothing about until the nominations are published in April. I act as their agent which make more sense to me and it puts them under an obligation eyes: There is more than one way to kill a cat than feeding it too much cream you know. ;)
Non serious answer is the Chinese option previously mentioned.

The rest of it sounds suitably Machiavellian for you Snoopy. ;)
