[Moos]

Sandperson and Sandpersona, many congratulations! Little sandperson welcome to the world, and specifically to East Dulwich, which is actually a happy and welcoming place for new parents.

Congratulations - beautiful names.

Congrats Sandperson, just don't you dare dress the poor mite in a Man U top! She deserves the chances you never had! ;-)

In Rogers Profanisaurus the entry for Yummy Mummy is as follows:- 1. n. A middle aged woman worthy of a good seeing to, eg. Helen Mirren. 2. n. A young mother with a fantastic arse pushing a buggy.

[rifleman harris]

I would have substituted Helen Mirren with Stevie Nicks myself.

[Cassius]

Without sounding mean (but it does) I think Helen Mirren now in her 60's would be delighted to be called middle aged!

[Keef]

How about Polly Walker (Atia in Rome), she's almost 42.

I would anyway.

[jimbo1964]

I loved Rome. It's a shame there's no third series.

[Keef]

I know, Mrs Keef and I are currently rewatching it, but I wish they'd do more.

[SimonM]

The third season of "Rome" was actually made some time back and called "I, Claudius" by the Beeb.:))

Not sure really how a third season would have worked with so many of the better characters killed off - and in such spectacular ways too!

But the Ian MacNeice character was tremendous!

[dulwichmum]

OHMYGOD! Her botox is breathtaking. Who does Polly's work?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Blimey. If Helen Mirren is middle aged, I'm a babe!

[Guest]

Apparently middle age is officially from 42 to 65, or maybe it's 68.

[SimonM]

Middle age is your own age plus 10 years B)

[citizenED]

Can we have some parameters on what constitutes middle youth?

[macroban]

Three score plus ten, divided by two.

[Cassius]

I always say there's plenty of time to be middle aged when you're old - but appreciate that is still very subjective.

Sweet, I still have another 5 years before I reach my middle youth birthday!

[macroban]

Or look at it this way...

If you're over 35 then you are more than half dead already.

Well if you intend on only living unitl you're 70. Personally I'm aiming for at least 120.

[Jah Lush]

I've programmed myself to self-destruct at 81. I don't really want to live much longer than that and feel it's a perfect age to bow out at. However, I might feel different about it when I get there. It'll largely depend on my mental and physical well being. I feel another thread coming on here....

[Moos]

My dad always said that once you get to 80, you can do and say whatever you like, because you've earned the right.
