You mean to say you can afford 2 pairs of shoes on a pension

David Report 27 Oct 2008 18:44

Pays to look after your feet I find. Wear different shoes each day. Lets one pair "rest" be cleaned, while you wear the others

Let me see
For my 60th I had
A mug to put my false teeth in
a brown rinse to cover the grey hair
a walking stick
a shawl
And a wallet for my bus pass
Any help

Well I don't know - I leave the thread for a few hours to have some dinner and watch Little Dorrit and what happens - it all ends up as bathroom talk and tales of tuneful farting!

Honestly you lot!

I'm not quite there, but it will soon come im sure

A Senior Citizen
I am a senior citizen...

- I'm the life of the party... even when it lasts 'till 8pm.

- I'm very good at opening childproof caps with a hammer.

- I'm usually interested in going home before I get to where I'm going.

- I'm good on a trip for at least an hour without my aspirin, antacid...

- I'm the first one to find the bathroom wherever I go.

- I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up.

- I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a word you're saying.

- I'm very good at telling stories...over and over and over and over.

- I'm aware that other people's grandchildren are not as bright as mine.

- I'm so cared for: long-term care, eye care, private care, dental care.

- I'm not grouchy, I just don't like traffic, waiting, children, politicians...

- I'm positive I did housework correctly before the Internet.

- I'm sure everything I can't find is in a secure place.

- I'm wrinkled, saggy and lumpy, and that's just my left leg.

- I'm having trouble remembering simple words like... uh...

- I'm realizing that aging is not for sissies.

- I'm walking more (to the bathroom) and enjoying it less.

- I'm sure they are making adults much younger these days.
