Evening all, and please bear with me, it might just be the heat!

Watching "Live At The Apollo" , why do I want to say with regard to Noel Fielding "Have that boy washed and brought to my tent!"

Actually, I would be quite happy if he was to pop round for a coffee and a muffin!

I remember my old dad often saying ‘cor, if only I was 50 years younger’. I wish he knew I often find myself thinking the same lately!

I have an ex with the Noel Fielding/Russell Brand look. What a shame he was an arse ?.

Definitely Tom Hardy or Idris Elba for me ???

anniesgrannie Fri 13-Jul-18 15:07:07

Thank you MissAdventure. Definitely a NO. Clint Eastwood for me.

GrannyGravy13 Fri 13-Jul-18 15:01:18

David Tenant or Nicholas Cage, I'm not fussy???

Look at what you are all writing here. If this was dads/grandadsnet and the men were talking about passing young attractive girls/women around you would all be disgusted, Double standards gransnetters!!! Double standards. It's not good.

Coolgran65 Don't you mean your ' doc' is the image of Rufus Sewell ?

MissAdventure Fri 13-Jul-18 12:06:05

This is him..

Legs55 Fri 13-Jul-18 12:06:01

David Tennant definitely, my all time favourite is Clint Eastwood ever since I saw him in Rawhide, as my friend & I say "I wouldn't kick him out of bed"grin

Who's Noel Fielding?

lesley4357 Fri 13-Jul-18 11:46:18

No mothering instinct with David Tennant - pure lust!!!

Minerva Fri 13-Jul-18 11:44:44

Isn’t it strange how different people’s tastes for men are, but it would be odder if we all fancied the same type. I still lust after George Clooney but I haven’t aged as well as he has and he looks well and truly spoken for now.
I had a great number of boyfriends in the 60s but none of them looking as if they needed a wash and a haircut.

lesley4357 Fri 13-Jul-18 11:43:21

Most women of a certain age have a bit of a thing for Noel Fielding. Think it's a combination of lust and mothering instinct!

KatyK Fri 13-Jul-18 11:31:33

Oo yes David Tennant. I have a nephew who looks just like him.

Oh...you are a card...pmlgringringrin

DanniRae Fri 13-Jul-18 11:27:27

Oh, I forgot David Tennant. I saw him and Michael Sheen in Crystal Palace Park a few months ago. They were filming and David's hair was a strange red colour but he still looked fit! grin

MissAdventure - grin

GabriellaG Well it's only a bit of fun. You can't help your taste! Usually, I am with you. My DH is clean cut, slim, neat hair and smart. I have never liked the great unwashed in the past. My idol was George Harrison. I didn't like the Rolling Stones at first or hippy types. I liked pretty boys but hey ho, I'm getting old, I can divert my taste a little.

MissAdventure Fri 13-Jul-18 11:15:00

I prefer mine much more rough and ready.
A beard, a moustache, and a hairy chest.. but enough about my physical features. grin

GabriellaG Fri 13-Jul-18 11:12:55

KatyK and phoenix

What APPALLING taste.
The great unwashed.
I like men to be clean-shaved with a good haircut (sans gel) well dressed and no piercings or tatts.
Those two (plus Sheeran and others) are well beyond the pale.

Margs Fri 13-Jul-18 11:12:52

Oh, I'll take the magnificent Tom Baker any way you like! Yes, I know he's well into his eighties now but none of are going to get younger, now are we?

But he still has that deep, mahogany hypnotic voice. I'd have that if I couldn't have the rest of him!

Annesixty. I use that expression to my girls and get the shocked reply 'MOTHER !'. I've been known to say it about Adam Henson, Matt Baker, Rev Wilding and Shaggy among others
