Yeah, but if you drink it, it will have worn off by the time you wake up.
Of course you can get a reduction on my new range of moisturiser:
WordyWet
for skin that looks as young as you can expect after the way you’ve been living . . . . .

I’m more relaxed about food. My aim is to eat what’s good for me, eat when I’m hungry, stop eating when I’m no longer hungry, don’t eat when I’m not hungry, don’t avoid treats, but make them treats not regular. I fail cheerfully and often, but I’m reasonably content.
If I want to change shape, I exercise rather than diet. I find that changes my appetite and taste anyway. As for additives, I’m not a great reader of labels, but I reckon if I’m not overdoing one particular food and eating and drinking in moderation, I should be OK.
This might change in time, we’re all going to live longer, barring accidents or disasters, and I really should try to reach old age in good shape. However there are no guarantees, I’ve had acquaintances who have watched their diets carefully and exercised strenuously and have ended up slim, but in terrible health.
Eat and drink well, sleep well, enjoy each day, treasure those precious to you and try to leave the people around you better than you found them.
And moisturise.
Not a ‘supporter’ of Hallowe’en or Trick or Treat in themselves, mainly because of my ambition to become a miserable git as I get older.
However I had a tin of Roses and some Haribos/Allsorts/Starbursts ready last night. Kids (and the parent accompanying them) should get some reward for their efforts and experience some kindness and good humour from a stranger. Anything that increases safe, good-humoured human contact in a community has to be a good thing.
Cutest must have been a boy and girl not more than about 2 and 3 – almost brought a tear to my eye. But I couldn’t help blurting out to a couple of young teenage girls “Is that all you got? A hat?” . They still got sweets though.
It’s not the whole world, just this bloke/couple and the degree to which they reflect affluence in modern society.
It’s interesting how many people either say they are concerned about their looks, or insulted if their age is over-estimated, yet don’t do the basic things which help slow down the appearance of ageing – moisturise, exercise, eat/drink moderately.
Perhaps we should re-educate ourselves to compliment more natural appearances and to demonstrate the value of the things that really matter – kindness, generosity, humour and wisdom.
If her plastic surgery was aimed at attracting a mate and she never told him about it, then she can hardly be surprised if the husband she attracts values her looks above other aspects of their relationship. Of course we don’t know what else went on with the marriage, maybe there had been other let-downs. . . . . .
It’s Saucery . . . . .
I found this interesting, it might not have been much, but not everyone did nothing.

For those who don’t follow links, The first part of the story goes . . .
A former BBC governor for Wales and Children in Need chairman says he had suspicions about Jimmy Savile more than a decade ago and would not allow him any involvement with the charity.
Sir Roger Jones heard of rumours from London staff, and the charity decided not to allow Savile “anywhere near” it.
He said he did not tell management because he did not have evidence Savile abused children while a BBC employee.
Police believe Savile may have abused as many as 300 people over 40 years.
Sir Roger’s comments come on the day the investigation into the BBC’s child protection and whistle-blowing policies begins.
He was a member of the board of governors between 1997 and 2002, and said he would have stepped down from his Children in Need role if Savile had become involved with the charity.
Well, it is the Jimmy Savile thread, not the “who are you and what the hell did you say about me” thread

Unfortunately, we may have to arm our police.
With police officers being shot at and having grenades thrown at them – this really is a sign of the times.
Especially with the immigrant element of crime now, we’re getting African and Asian gangs armed to the teeth invading Britain.
Our police need firepower to fight back.
Not like the old days: our criminals only robbed people who had money to spare, and gangs only shot/robbed/stabbed/dealt drugs to their own kind. If they were caught by the police they responded with “It’s a fair cop guv, I’ll come quietly”. Those Victorian prisons were only there for show and the laws against robbery, guns, murders etc were only brought in just in case anyone turned up at Dover looking a little tanned . . . . . .

Easy solution. Create a White Footballers Association.
If people cry racism tell them to shove their double standards and hypocrisy where the sun don’t shine. 8) 8)
I can’t see any problems with a white footballers’ association aiming to counter the disadvantage and abuse that white players experience specifically because of their colour. They could also get involved in motivating youngsters to see the game as a serious career, not just an x factor lottery and work to increase the clubs’ involvement in sustaining and developing communities.
Laudable!
