Yesterday my daughter emailed me gain,asking why I did't do
something useful with my time. "like sitting around the pool and drinking wine is not a good thing" I asked. Talking about my "doing somthing useful" seems to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was " only thinking of me ",she said and suggested that 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 play a prank on her. I e-mailed her and told her I had joined a parachute Club. She replied, "Are you nuts ? You are 78 years old and now your going to start jumping out of airplanes ?" I told her that I even got a Membership card, and e mailed a copy to her. She immediately telephoned me and yelled , "Good grief Mum,where are your glasses ? ! This is Membership for a Prostitute club. Oh Im in trouble again," I rearlly dont know what to do. I signed for five jumps a week !!! The phone went dead.
Talking about Prostitutes. My Son, Daughter In Law, my three year old Grandaughter and I were in Amsterdam last week. It was a day on a weeks cruise. We were walking around when all of a sudden my son said he thought we had wandered into the red light district. He had seen a girl dancing topless in a window. Nobody else saw it luckily. We walked on across a bridge hoping that was that. All of a sudden a big black lady popped out of a doorway with a bra on and trousers undone showing what looked like a g/string pair of briefs. You can imagine how we felt and we quickly hurried on out of there. Not the sort of thing you want your Granddaughter to see but there is no warning of when you are entering the place. We did see the funny side of it after. You just reminded me with your hilarious post. X
Thanks for that one Malk, brilliant joke. I go to a group of widows mostly retired but groups are not the answer for everyone. Do what suits you is my motto, not what others think is best.
brilliant...I would have loved to be fly on wall to see her reactions , you will never get away with anything like this again............or...................WILL YOU?.........I wonder!!
I'm so glad yo don't join anytning that you don't want to.
I go to a coffee morning organised by the church. My wife encouraged me to go with her. I have been there for over ten years now. We know each otehr and it's good fun. But there are certain clubs where you just sit in a chair all day long without exchanging a word with your neighbour. I'd dread that idea!
Loved it. Some children do like to think they know what's good for us don't they?
I go to a local centre for the over 55's but most of them are in their 70's and 90% are female. But there are some amazing people there. I go to a 'games' afternoon where a mixed crowd of us play a card game called 'Euchre' which I love and a writers group too. In this group there is a woman with a great sense of humour who used to run a pig farm in Cornwall, one who has a big spread in the country and has her own choir and plays at weddings, a former piano teacher who also plays at weddings and a lady who used to write the most wonderful funny poems. I don't write much but thoroughly enjoy them and don't stop laughing there x
