Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Don't feel too bad about it.  I remember it well too.

All before my time :D

Though I always feel a bit melancholy when I see a Silk Cut Jag. I had think luxuriant black hair in those days...  :(

At my age, it takes me all night to do what I used to do all night!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, growing old is compulsary, but growing up is just optional.

Although my hair is mostly black it is starting to sprout greys at a steady rate. If this is not bad enough, on Sunday during my once a month look in the mirror I found a seriously long ginger hair on my left eyebrow! I was shocked to say the least- the prospect of mad Dennis Healy-esque brows I can live with but gingeness makes me very afraid. Where's the tyre paint gone?
 Ps. Billy Piper was on a re-run of Top Gear the other day. She said she fancies beer guts, ginger hair and loves old cars. I'm in!
