Following my brief stay in hospital last year Ihave received a letter for a follow up appointment. No problem.
I see it is signed by a person who describes themselves as 'Appointments Secretary: Services for the Elderly'

Oh Nick! happy100

Yes? Well? What about it?
Ask ANYONE under the age of 25,and they will tell you that anyone over 30 is a fossil.
You are as old as YOU want to be, or not as the case may be.
I personally couldn't give a flying duck what number I'm up to this year.

Over 50 and you ARE in the twighlight zone. Like it or not, you will probably be dead within the next 20. Fact.
Something to almost look forward to tbh though if you think about it long enough.
I'm not saying be morbid and wish yerself dead or owt, but think of ALL the shite you won't have to endure anymore like! Heavenly! cloud9:

Grumpy old git you are, but in mind and outlook, probably not.
Body's goosed though, sorry.
So's mine.
Being diagnosed with this bastard permanent incurable illness of mine 12 years ago was probably the best thing that ever happened to me...mentally.
Turned me from a wimpy worryer into a 'you won't bloody defeat me bad tempered bastard', and I consider mtself mentally stronger for being that way. happy088

I don't think so - when I was working I used to have 3 pints every lunchtime and it in no way affected my spelling. I think it could be the lack of lunchtime booze that's doing it. I certainly write more creatively after a few!

At what age do you become old?
I am 64 and I am still a fine figure of a man, in full control of my faculties, my own teeth and hair, hung like a stallion and can still manage it 3 time a night, and I still believe in the honesty and the ability of our wonderful Labour Party Leaders to govern our green an pleasant land.
Well thats what the voices tell me...

According to the missus a man is as old as the woman he is feeling. She told me that when I pointed out that she was 28 and I was 40. I am now 61. rubschin: Time to trade her in do you think?

Mrs Nick wanted a French girl to move in for three months. I said no. I am having second thoughts rubschin:
She's 22 angel1
She might like a piece of my cake eyes:

As for "That Bird" ~ He appeared in Robins Nest with Tessa Wyatt (ex wife of Tony Blackburn) I can find no recent pictures of her on Google. In Man about the House he starred with two girls Sally Thomsett (Remember her from The Railway Children) and Paula Wilcox.
I feel Uncle has made a valid point we ALL (even BM) get older.
Personally I wish that the Daily Mail (and other papers) would leave these poor people alone. They have had their day and now wish to live a quiet life in retirement ~ hounding them to their graves serves no purpose except to remind us all of our own mortality.
More than a touch of the Brand and Ross about such behaviour IMHO

Excellent Tel! cloud9:

Paula Wilcox looks ok these days - she was in Emmerdale recently.
Always preferred her to Sally Thomsett, seem to remember something about her being in a bad relationship and used to appear with black eyes.

Could have the same effect, hit them hard enough and your muscles tense so much all your skin is pulled taut. Wonder if I could market it as an idea to irritating celebs... whistle:

Looking at where he now lives ("Retirement" Home for Actors) and the state of him I would say either a stroke or alcohol. Either way the reporting is intrusive.
