Overheard one of my 96yr olds telling her daughter that the doctor had been to see her and said she had a water infection and had given her some antibiotics.

Said she didn't have a water infection. It was pheumonia.

Why....... she hadn't had sex for a while!

I rest my case. Now you know what I have to put up with.

Great job. Never a dull moment.

Hi Jane,

Said my goodbyes to them all today and said I would send them a postcard.

A 93 year old said she wanted a dirty one!

Said I would drop it on the ground and stamp on it a few times.

Told me to stop arsing about and send me one of those really rude seaside ones.

I'm telling you now. The 90+ brigade want to be served ASBO's.

Jane,

Let them cringe. They probably deserve it for all the hassle they make us put up with whatever age they are.

Once a mother... always a mother.

Mine keep telling me to be nice as they are going to chose my nursing home.

I tell them. Want any inheritance. be nice to me or the tortoise is going to inherit the lot!
