I was digging through some junk in my room yesterday and came across an article which made me giggle. I'll print one or two of the phrases here, but wondered if anyone else had any of their own? laugh

These are credited to Joan Sauers' book 'Ageing Discracefully':

"Don't sleep with a guy just because he looks like he stepped out of a Calvin Klein ad. One the other hand, if it's been a while...." (I should be so lucky - lucky lucky lucky rolling on the floor laughing )

"If the romance with your partner fizzles more than it sizzles, you might consider ditching the limp terry-towelling dressing gown, the dog-chewed slippers, and the stained T-shirt you've been waring to bed the last four years" (sounds familiar)

"Remember that prettiness belongs to the young but with true beauty, age is irrelevant"

I will post a pic, but I don't know how to put a pic on my PC. I will ask my daughter to do it, this weekend.

I think ageing sucks too, by the way. But I'm getting better at it.
