When we moved into this house my husband put the mirror up in the bathroom. He's 6 foot and I'm 5 foot 1 so guess what, yep it's at his height. Too avoid occasions like this, I have left it where it is. There's nothing worse than scaring yourself first thing in a morning lol!

heh heh...wonderful story,  I love it. I think if I had to lug a pair of steps around to have a look - I wouldn't be bothered either.

It's very odd, my grandmother seems to have moved in with me.

.and you never even heard anything! Wonderful!!!!!!

Grrrr. I have a huge round one in my bedroom that reminds me every day that I am twice as big as I should be - something wrong with that mirror - it has to go.  Feel a bit sorry for you men for you have to look in the mirror  every day to shave.

Happy Sunday:-)

No ..I love looking in the mirror Jennifer. .it cheers me up no end.

Though it's not easy shaving with a big fixed smile on my face.

just lucky i suppose 😆

Andy - you are indeed a very lucky man and it is good that you don't take it for granted :-)

Well no i dont Jennifer. . my modesty keeps my vanity under control..but it's not easy...takes a lot of will power.

But I think you know me by now😆xx.

in reply to

Don't think so Andy.  You have had what we call a second bite at the cherry and it has worked out so perfectly for you....modesty?  not your middle name my friend!

Think I am getting to know a little of you, yes:-)

Mother nature's trying to be kind to me, I think - by allowing a certain fuzziness to cloud my vision. But, when I have my contact lenses in ......EEEEK! 

I try and avoid mirrors if I can, the other lady is always pulling weird faces at me 😂😂😂😊 xx Sonia xx

My house seems to have one of those comical 'hall of mirrors'...don't know who put it there, but it's NOT funny!

Hi I don't just think that can't be right - I actually run away in horror and spend time in mass depression!  lol  x

When i look in the mirror some old bugger is looking back at me, dont know how he got in ,and for two pins i would have him thrown out, but he looks strangely like someone i once knew, except he  is old and frail,so will let him stay for as long as he can.!!!
