Re: Ageing Gracefully
Climbed up on the roof again today, had to fix a broken tile.
Her indoors said what are you doing up there.
Well, if I was not there is a chance you would get wet next time it rained and still be inside.
No further comment.
Women are like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have my very own built in alarm clock. It’s called a bladder and it does not have a snooze button. JS

Your post about dizziness sounds like Daffy Duck and Elma Fudd as they break into a distillery, Daffy turns to
Elmer and says “ Is this Whiskey?”.Elmer says “Yeth but not as whiskey as wobbing a bank !!!”
