  • Seniors. Shell suits, worst fashion?

    The survey commissioned by online retailer isme.com asked 2000 women over 50 to vote for their least liked fashion trends.

    The shell suit was voted the worst fashion faux pas of the past 50 years

    The shell suit, popular in the 80s and early 90s, came in at number 1 with a staggering 91% of votes. The item, which was also jokingly worn by comedian Sacha Baron Cohen's character Ali G, was closely followed by the Spandex mini skirt at 88% and dungarees at 73%

    What's your opinion?

  • Seniors,do to you remember the Wakes weeks?

    This is pobably more relevant to UK but it it's about holidays the working classes holidays.

    I was looking for a holiday next month and turned my mind back to the 50's when all the cotton mills,schools, and most firms closed for the 'Wakes' fortnight. I was thinking of the queues of people waiting at our bus station for their charabanc,( or sherras, as we called them,) to take them to their holiday resorts.

    The favourites up here where Blackpool,Southport,Morecambe. Did other folk experience the holiday exodus. My favourite was New Brighton

  • Anything to save a penny?

    Seniors.

    Is there no end to extremes some firms will go to make money? No doubt they can cram an extra dozen or so seats in place of the toilets.At least they provide a private room. What thinks you?

  • Organ donation option?

    Coming soon,when applying for driving Licence on-line.

    There is question that's been on the driving licence application form for a while,but was a voluntary option. It concerned organ donation.It will soon be a compulsory,yes or no if your prepared to become a donor.

    Is it subtle blackmail or is it a good idea due to the importance and may at least get peoples attention and maybe discussing it more.

    I would put 'yes' to the option

  • Seniors.What is the taste of 'salt water taffy'?

    The catalogue that I order my music from has photo of a bloke propping a counter up at,what I presume,is a ice cream parlour. At one side there is a price list.

    Tamale with Chill 45c

    Sno Kones 15c

    Salt water Taffy 15c-25c

    among others.

    I've looked at Wiki but it explained how it was made,but not a comparable taste. To me,it sounds like caramel

  • Seniors,Double Yolked Eggs?

    How often do you get double yolked eggs?

    Out of a box of six,three were double yolked,maybe more but I had those boiled so couldn't tell.

    My gaffer reckons it was about 30 yrs since she last did me one. I'm sure they were pretty common when I was young.I wonder if battery farming had a part in it,or am I mistaken over them being reasonably common?

  • suggestions for Christmas market accomodation?

    For the last two years,my wife and myself have stayed in Rudesheim.

    The reasons,it has a good Christmas market of it's own,it's convenient to Weisbaden,Mainz,Frankfurt and Koblenz to visit their markets,all within an hour or so,also easy to get to from Frankfurt airport.

    Could anyone suggest a similar alternative,we have been thinking of Hamelin,but it seems rather isolated

  • how do you respond to a favour or assistance?

    It would appear most Brits have forsaken 'Thank You' for more casual show of gratitude.

  • Christmas advertising?

    Whether your actually an active Christian or not,most on here belong to Christian countries. As such,I believe Christmas is an important celebration and part of our culture and should be treated with some reverence.

    My question is,should there be a voluntary time span between starting Christmas adverts and the actual celebration be sought from advertisers.

    There's just been an advert on for Christmas catalogues and as it's still May,I think it's ridiculous. The priority these days,deems to be the making of money and the actual event is just a convenient way of doing so
