    Just seen this ad it made me titter:D

    Children just should not pick on their elders who have considerably
    more cunning than them

    Yesterday, my daughter again asked why I didn't do something
    useful with my time.
    Talking about my "doing something useful" seemed to be her
    favourite topic of conversation.

    She was "only thinking of me," and suggested I go down to the
    senior centre and hang out with the guys.

    I did this, and when I got home last night I decided to teach
    her a lesson about staying out of my business.
    I told her that I had joined a parachute club.

    She said, "Are you nuts? You 're almost 79 years old, and you're
    going to start jumping out of airplanes?"
    I proudly showed her that I even got a membership card
    She said to me, "Good grief, where are your glasses! This is a
    membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club."

    "I'm in trouble again, and I don't know what to do... I signed
    up for five jumps a week," I told her. She fainted.

    Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier, but sometimes
    it can be fun !

    Well due to being stuck inside, my present cupboard is sorted. Can safely say I have all Xmas presents and back ups for when my sister comes over panicking that she hasn't got any 3 days before Xmas :mad::)

    Who else is ready?
