"The face you have at 50 is the face you deserve"..............

[PuffTheMagicDragon]

What do you reckon then?

www - think it was Courtney Cox. She chose her bum (and looks rough around the chops now, I think). Me - I'm looking after my face at my bum's expense!

My mum is 52 and has really good skin, a few wrinkles but pretty good, but she is also quite fat and that makes you look younger in the face IMO.

She never smoked or sunbathed or drank too much, so its an incentive to me to give all three up!!

gdk, I assumed (hope she doesn't beat me up) that Jools was in her early 60's - not sure if she said so in her posts, but that's the impression I got.

I briefly saw her pic on here one night (no not Hartley ) - and she looks much younger than early 60's.

Come on Jools, fess up with your secrets to the elixir of youth!

Agree with everyone re sun exposure and smoking - they are ageing.

Jools must have led a saint like life if this parable is true

Where's Jool's picture - I want to see!

I don't think it's just a question of whether or not you have wrinkles. Wrinkles are a sign of having an expressive, rather than a blank face, in your earlier years, after all. Where the lines develop does reveal something about character, however. I and my friends are fortysomethings and many of us are getting our wrinkles now. I always think about this quote when I see people whom I know are not happy developing frown lines between their eyebrows, and people who smile a lot developing vertical lines next to their mouths.

Puff - JT is most certainly not in her 60s! Hence the reason she looks younger - she is!! Ha ha!! She still does look good for age though - everyone tells her so!

EARLY 60's????!!!!

pass me the smelling salts - quick!

Puff - who's been spreading malicious gossip? (am the same age as JanH )

Anteater - thankyou - you're a gentleman

How can I make it up to you !

So where is the link to Jools picture then? I notice that Jools who is normally very forward with her links has gone coy on this one...

She gave us a late night peek one evening......

Oldiemum,

Having read your post I am consiously working on vertical lines by my mouth now and trying to smooth out my furrowed brow

Puff,

Unless she is a spineless wimp and total chicken she will do the same again...

(do you think that might provoke her into allowing another peek. I want to see if the picture corresponds to my perception!)

what's your perception?

cluck, cluck

Slim to medium build. 5 feet 7. Brown hair in short neat style. 'Cheeky' face and probably quite funky looking (I was going to say 'for your age' and then thought better of it...but you know what I mean).

ROFLMAO!!!

Am literally peeing my pants!!

Was I that wide of the mark then?

Nooo, I don't know why - it just has be in stitches! Height is way off!

You're actually not far off at all - it just made me laugh - I think it was the words 'cheeky' and 'funky'!!

Yes I can see how they might make a daughter of said person guffaw!

hmc - lend me a tenner and I'll show you

Now pack that in at once!
