    :eek: How come I get dragged into this??? :rotfl:
    Anyway, what about his age, can a man not try? He might have had a load of green shield stamps you know :p

    :rotfl: Age doesn't bother me, but it is a little jarring when he's talking about withdrawing his pension in 3 years time and your friends are telling you to have children before you 'dry up' :eek:

    :eek: And he is only 15 years older than you?? And I always thought you were younger than me. Bless, I bet you could give TS a run for her money in the age stakes then :p
