I remember reading this on a post card at the seaside in the 70s and laughing as a teenager. It's funny how apt it is in our life now........ From twenty to thirty if a man lives right, It's once in the morning and twice at night >From thirty to forty if he still lives right He misses in the morning AND sometimes at night >From forty to fifty it's just now and then >From fifty to sixty it's God knows when His sporting days are over, his little light is out What used to be his pride and joy is now his water spout It used to be embarrassing, making it behave It stood up in the morning and watched him have a shave But now he's getting older it sure gives him the blues To see it hanging upside-down and watch him tie his shoes
I've known the 2nd stanza more or less by memory since I was a teenager but never heard the first part. Still makes me chuckle.
Brilliant! Loved all those "saucy", very much of their day postcards! Mind you that's in the days when yourself and Mrs Chaste would have been referred to as "birds" or "crumpet"! The attitudes over the years have certainly changed. Don't think I could even imagine male chastity or female led relationships back then! Mind you I was a "hot under the collar" teenager! And if I'd seen you at the time would probably have thought "cor, lovely bit of crumpet". Society and the media did condition us in a much different way back then!
My wife pays all the bills and controls our life, but at the end of the day, I offer to do the dishes and she says that I have done enough. How do you respond. I feel nothing but love.
