To think that middle aged women are really a bit pointless?

[Hullygully]

What is the point of them?

Really?

I remain extrememly concerned at the people shock fucking the list.

Is that really necessary?

Show some restraint here MAW.

Barging small children off the dancefloor while singing the wrong words while high leg kicking while whooping while clapping while dancing

Hully - I am not 'shock fucking' the list, but it sounds quite erotic

Can we add The Daily Mail please?

Right I have to go out to buy werthers and sell cat ornaments in th echarity shop

Do NOT mess up the list.

It's all up to you, List Manager Vermicious. No pressure.

Right am also off to high leg kick and wee a bit in real life.

I look forward to an orderly list later.

Peering over reading glasses...

Hully are you going to Friday Afternoon Club round the church with my mum?

Fuck me, I knew that bastard Volvo was a mistake.

Can you not alphabetise the list? Would that be too middle aged?

Musicals staged in local theatres both watching and performing in.

oo yes, Am Dram. Also singing in wavery voices. At inappropriate times.

Not shaggable!!! Not shaggable!!!! Middle aged people do far more shagging than the worn out child rearing younger people ( and we are far more adventurous) Most of those things on your various lists are the preserve of the over 70's not those of us who got on the housing ladder early enough to have loads of dosh and loads of fun. No one I know whoudl be seen dead in a waterfall cardigan or a Nissan Note.
