A fine figure of a man - or a silly vain old fool? Testosterone supplements anyone?

Dr Life (his real name he claims) busts his gut to keep it looking like a fit 40 year old's. And injects himself with testosterone. And makes money out of his personal "brand".
Would you like your DH to have a body like his?

If we are talking pin up of the month, then I really think we need to take Mr Soop into consideration!

grin he's a weed!

For goodness sake don't tell Jingle or we shall be drowned in pictures of Merlin.

Galen Thu 07-Feb-13 19:43:02

He's revolting and mad!

JessM Thu 07-Feb-13 19:31:44

Of course GN pinups could be really young and not just wannabe young.

JessM Thu 07-Feb-13 19:30:43

Nay lass. Dr Life!!! He who has convinced himself that he is not ageing.

Galen Thu 07-Feb-13 19:27:34

JessM just glanced at this thread and saw the mad dr!
Thought you meant me for a minute!grin

Ana Thu 07-Feb-13 19:24:18

He wouldn't have much competition, would he? grin

JessM Thu 07-Feb-13 19:22:17

grin Should we enter the mad dr into the Gransnet pinup of the month competition do you think?

Ana Thu 07-Feb-13 19:10:53

It'll give Lil a good laugh, anyway!

Anne58 Thu 07-Feb-13 18:53:25

Have nipped into Lil's, didn't stop for a drink, but have posted a link!

Anne58 Thu 07-Feb-13 18:51:15

Not a bad idea, Ana. We could also ask the chaps in Lil's to take a look and see what they think?

Ana Thu 07-Feb-13 18:40:49

Perhaps you should have put it on 'Ask a Granddad' Jess grin

JessM Thu 07-Feb-13 18:39:40

hmm another male-interest thread fails to attract em in phoenix

Anne58 Thu 07-Feb-13 08:48:53

Couldn't we introduce him to Gina Lollobrigida?

"I'm not against ageing. I'm against getting old."

Age > verb grow or cause to appear old or older.

Silly, vain old fool.

Completely narcissistic! Not sexy to my mind. You might as well go to bed with a washboard.

Anne58 Wed 06-Feb-13 19:28:57

JessM if he carries on like that his sphincter (sp?) will be so muscled up that he won't be able to have the initial test!

gracesmum Wed 06-Feb-13 19:23:17

I don't think it is different JessM - maybe just the difference between a silly vain old fool and a silly (vain) young fool?

vampirequeen Wed 06-Feb-13 18:37:20

Urgh....nothing else to add.

JessM Wed 06-Feb-13 18:30:50

Yes nellie as it says in the article it can accelerate the growth of prostate cancers and seeing as an awful lot of old men have some level of cancerous cells in their prostates...

Anne58 Wed 06-Feb-13 18:21:29

Yuk, yuk and thrice yuk!

Ana Wed 06-Feb-13 18:07:27

Yes, Jess, I know you meant the billboard photo - just thought I'd provide a contrast! The billboard pic is really weird in that his body does actually look quite young - but his head doesn't...

Nelliemoser Wed 06-Feb-13 18:04:53

Isn't all that testosterone likely to mess up his prostate?

JessM Wed 06-Feb-13 17:56:40

I meant to add a grin after flicketyb re previous comment
