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

[Hullygully]

What is the point of them?

Really?

[Pagwatch]

Hooray, classic classics thread.
Very good.

[Pagwatch]

Oh. Except last nights drunken celeb gay date confessions are here to stay.

[LadyEvilEyes]

Excellent.
So what happens now?
Does this one keep going or do we post on classics?
Bloody brilliant thread by the way.

[Pagwatch]

Aw, hark at Maryz doing thread prep. Googling middle aged icons

[SuePurblybiltFromBitsofCorpses]

Zat your thread plan Maryz ?

I think we let it die gracefully, like all MAWs should.

[Pagwatch]

MAWS don't die. They swoon.

[SuePurblybiltFromBitsofCorpses]

For one thing, the potential for ongoing larfs is better if we leave room on the thread for it to get dragged back into active every month or so by someone who has only read Hully's OP and is outraged .

[OldMumsy]

Maryz I'm not googling middle-aged icons as I'm not over the hairy women google results yet, had to have a bit of a lie down actually

[OldMumsy]

Don't forget Helen Mirren for the list....

[DMAGA]

What about vino? Are chardonnay and Bollinger on the list? Must we switch to alcopops and vodka? Mind you, we oldies shouldn't be drinking anything if the doctors are to be believed....just sipping our tea, feeding our cats and reading Mills and Boon in bed (is Mills and Boon on the list?)
And who is going to keep the cosmetic surgeons in business without the Botox, boob jobs and facelifts: surely we are doing our bit for the ailing economy here? (and don't forget the VAT!).
Come on you COUGARS - where are you? Growwwwwwl

[Hullygully]

Paggy?

Are you there?

Someone's calling you.

[DMAGA]

Or should that have been Miaaaooowwwww?

[Pagwatch]

I'm here!

I am smiling at you all. It just doesn't look like it

[Hullygully]

Here's another list thing: taking teenage ds shopping and spending 8 billion pounds on clobber for him to wear for looking good whilst on X Box when you ain't got any yerself.

[Pagwatch]

Oh yes to that.

And nodding happily while teenager shows you clip after clip from the mighty boosch or family guy because it is so hilarious and therefore must be shared.

[mutha2two]

Cougars now I am scared! Demi know life has been rough lately . . . Can your peer group beckon you over to join your spiritual home and feed you up on hob nobs. No more of that nasty jogging and plastic surgery for you! Mine's a bottle of Pol Roger on the drinks order

[LadyEvilEyes]

Yes, us MAWs and teenagers.
God, a whole other thread and a whole other list.
I've lost count the number of times ds has come through to tell me to watch something amazing [hmmm]. I think it was Derren Brown shooting someone last time.
Bless.

[mutha2two]

The best thing about being a maw is that your gorgeous young adult children can take the pressure off you having to look good all the time. Trudie Styler said that once but I still reckon she puts in a few hours' hard graft in the grooming stakes

[Hullygully]

I have watched, assessed and considered deeply and at considerable length, the different merits of three mobile phones.

[Pagwatch]

Oh yes.

to tell the truth I miss that. Or the tunes he would insist on playing for me while I was trying to cook supper.

[crazynannawitchbitch]

A few years ago,during a minor MAW crisis,I started dating a guy 15 years younger than me

It all went Pete Tong when one day we were walking to the pub wine bar,and bumped into his friend,who looked at me and cheerfully asked my toyboy..."Oh,is this your mum's friend!" twat

[PinotScreechio]

Oh crazy! How
