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

When I visit MIL in her nursing home each week it is quite a sobering experience but last time one of the old dears got fed up with the nurse telling her something so she shouted, "Bollocks!" out loud which brightened things up no end. No-one dared tell her off!

Well as long as its behind your sunglasses, it doesn't count..

Well I must be boring then, visiting gallery's, afternoon tea, theatre .
Must admit behind my sunglasses loving the younger smart man in his shorts and tanned legs. Lovely bum

I have different dietary preferences and different political views from my DC. They attribute these facts to my encroaching senility, whereas I know that I have a lively and enquiring mind!

I will go on a nice river trip with him instead then.

If he can get me up off the floor

I'm afraid there is only his stand-in available. Mr Paxman..

Still can't get up off the floor.
Please send Rufus Sewell to rescue me

Oh I hadn't seen the bit about knitting and tutting! How hilarious. Reminds me of a friend whose partner put on a 'blue film'.
My friend was disgusted. The star of the film had green walls and a red sofa!

I've jus realised that this is an over 50s thread not an Over 70s thread

over 50s - just babes in arms

Is it ok to watch the porn videos
Maybe yggdrasil, as long as you keep knitting and tut a lot.

yggdrasil and FarNorth rofl

Help, can't get up off the floor!

We aren't supposed to tell it like it is. Being blunt and frank isn't on.

I recently had a Whatsapp (are we allowed to use it?) chat with my children after a family gathering at my house.

That evening, perhaps unwisely, I berated my children for their slightly stand-offish behaviour. They were washed out by Saturday's events, it transpired, so weren't very sociable, even though we'd made lots of effort to bring the family together for a big meal we'd cooked.

I told them I was fed up by their lack of effort and was asked why I was attacking them! Was I was drunk they asked!

So, we cannot be critical it would seem. Jollying things along is our role. We must stay schtumm and wallpaper over the cracks for the sake of family harmony.

Huh!

Should never share with their adult daughter what they would like to do to Rufus Sewell or Jeremy Paxman.
Sorry Teetime you can have Jeremy Paxman but Rufus Sewell will be too worn out by the time I let him go - he's mine, I tell you, mine!!

ooo Tee time can't get that umbrella picture out of my mind!

Of course not, bambam..
I mean, its just not the 'done thing' old girl!

Flirt with the Gardener, EVERY WEEK!
Watch Love Island
"Willy Watch" on the beach with bestie.
Who Moi??????????

Great thread. Very entertaining!

Shopping in Ann summer for erotic sexy fun wear. ;)

Decided to become an art student the month before my 53rd birthday. Can't wait to dye my hair purple!

I got drunk at a friend's sixtieth last month. Hugged a few male friends who I hadn't seen for 40 years. My (younger) sister who was with me has not stopped banging on about my "bad behaviour" .. it was once in a blue moon! .. I normally watch Foyles's War on Saturday night .. drinking a cup of tea. Last time I go anywhere with her!!!

At nearly 68 I sunbathe nude, skinny dip and make love in the pool. Wonder why we get a lot of gliders and small planes overhead.

Which sides do you wipe down with an antibacterial spray MissAdventure. How about getting the over 70's in this thread too, I may walk with a stick, but the dishy ( well no so bad) chap who fancies me may well get his bum felt!

Shouldn't be pigeonholed, and be as free as the wind, obviously only after housework,child care, elderly care,part time job, counselling, covering up the grey hairs , chin wax ( where do those hairs sprout from!) squeezing into size smaller than real size , etc etc ???????

Love this thread and am guilty of lots of things I "shouldn't do" on here! Keep it up ladies...

Can I just add - "enjoy a happy, regular sex life with your DH"?? We do it more than a lot of my younger colleagues!!

Tell ladies that a little spanking is a better lube than most creams prescribed by your GP after/during menopause?

OMG and so much more... such an entertaining thread!!

Apparently I shouldn't say I fancy the parcel delivery man. Just because I'm old enough to be his grandmother which is no doubt how he sees me. Doesn't stop me fancying him though.

Oh come on if you're only 50 you can do ANYTHING! I can vaguely remember some of the things I did. Now when you are 70 that's different!
