Watching a movie starring Antonio Banderas and he’s not the hot guy.

Apparently Cassandra Peterson (Elvira - Mistress of the Dark) is 73 
I just found myself ogling pics of her on Google Images.
Elvira was a seminal part of my adolescence, so to speak.

I read the book Pompeii by Robert Harris the other day and my mind drifted back to the Frankie Howerd movie “Up Pompeii” and Madeline Smith as Erotica and Julie Ege as Voluptua. MS about 76 now, JE’s been pushing up daisies for yonks.
I live on that block,

Is it very busy? I mean the block. A lot of traffic and people?

When you shave your long beard after six years of unfettered growth and discover that you look like an anorexic ET.

I’m impressed that you kept it for such a long period of time.
Mine rarely gets past 12-14 months…I get annoyed at all the white hairs on my sh*tty ochre coloured tiles…

As far as I’m concerned, the whitening beard is the only good thing about getting old. It means I no longer have 5 o’clock shadow at 10 in the morning.

I had a teacher with that issue. He lived near the school and would go home at lunchtime and have another shave.
When people start treating you like a god.
They ignore your existence unless they need something from you.

That could be from childbirth though!
Are you suggesting OBIT was in childbirth? 
I’m not much older than Mrs THT, but you can imagine my surprise when she texts (from my phone) in the family chat letting the Jnr THTs know she doesn’t have a phone
‘I’m just out with dad, rawdogging it. If you need anything call his phone’
I asked her if she knew what rawdogging was. Apparently she only ever heard of it recently as meaning not having a phone or any technology.

And women grizzle about how they lose their sex appeal far earlier than men.
Naughtons was the U19 pub in 1982. But it wasn’t blues and blacks - just university. They arbitrarily split us into Blues and Blacks the next year.
Re the Clyde, a bloke I played with in Blues seniors in the mid 80s who was about 10 years older than me had gone there (to the Clyde) one night in the mid 70s before a party at a share house my sister lived in in Carlton. He left the pub carrying one of the pub’s tall dark padded wooden chairs. It ended up at that share house. I later inherited it and it was my study chair while at uni in the 80s…

Hearing your daughter’s friend casually dropping the C Bomb multiple times in conversation. (But it was way out of context as we would know it)
either kids are using it with some other meaning, or its lost its impact as a word.
I do see foreigners online saying that Australians use it as a term of endearment, so maybe they think that’s how we roll.
