Things that over 50's aren't expected to do, have, think, or want?

Short skirts or dresses that expose your knees - not a good look for the over 50s.

Ride on motorbikes, go to rock gigs, say what they really think

Well I have found some interesting things here to do...hahaha. I do have sunbathing on a nudist beach on my bucket list

Another amusing poem is 'when i am an old lady....'
Payback time.

Misadventure. Has to be those amongst us who have nothing better to do in their own life. Many lives begin at fifty and looking back I was at my peak at that age.

We recently visited amsterdam and for a bit of a joke bought some cannabis biscuits and ditto tea bags (!). Waited til we got hime before trying them. Just in case, but Nada! However it was worth the inflated price when we told the children, their shock and horror was priceless.

Sorry, meant to add, all of which I do.

DH and I were part owners of a mainly men-owned business and one day visited and was expected to act the "little woman". Don't think they'd washed their mugs for weeks and I marched in and told them in no uncertain terms that they were a lot of effing w******! Their faces said it all - waiting for the earth to open up and swallow them whole and clearly never expecting me to know those words, let alone use them! And when working went with a group of mostly very young co-workers to a Beautiful South gig. There was a strong presence of pot in the box and DH and I indulged with some of the joints. A helpful lass kindly pointed out "You do know that this isn't tobacco?" She was quite taken aback when I gently explained that I was smoking "this" before she was born and furthermore as a 60s child I really enjoyed a bit of acid from time to time! Surprising and shocking people can be quite entertaining and can shake them out of their preconcieved notions!

This made me laugh so much......having been in the teaching profession it was a rite of passage to get shown new offspring of my class siblings. I always remembered the wise words of a worldly headmistress who advised, upon such occasions, to say..........now, THAT'S what I call a baby!.....saved a lot of time wondering what to say...!?

This has reminded me of jenny josephs 'when i am old i will wear purple' poem. It is brilliant. I especially like the part where she says that she will learn to spit. !

Maybe yggdrasil, as long as you keep knitting and tut a lot.

I agree with Ana . FB would maybe live this. We should never just get up one day get a plane and explore a new city. Blow the housekeeping on a fab new outfit and join a dating sightt

Is it ok to watch the porn videos

Definitely shouldn't have a f**k buddy

Thank you all for this very entertaining thread! I've been chuckling my way through it, wondering which are things you've actually done and which are just things you fantasize about. Makes great reading, anyway.
Just off to bed now. Am I allowed to sleep in the nude?

merlotgran Just wondering what "like an old people's home" looks like on a forum? !!
