Hard winters brought queues after that observation when loos were stationed at the end of a yard - - and shared with neighbours of course. A sensible Confusius the old men would say.......

AGEING COUPLETS (3)
Barry Hodges said:

Very true.

And when they do a poo through their bots,
Out it comes, lots and lots and lots. And lots.

Barry Hodges said:

Ageing requires an E in Standard English - only the Yanks spell it without!

You are right about older women though.

And wine.

I see blue skies with some sun peeking through over a mountain range and a small river - And it turns out to be a towel!? Egad, what am I forgetting, or is it just too much wine I\'ve been drinking. If you keep the towel long enough does it turn into the \"Mona Lisa?\" Aging beautifully. - Phil A.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

BRIAN HERE ~ Good Sunday Uncle Mike ~ Love both *Aging Couplets* but Brian & I still operate in the land of the *here & now* so our Memories & Minds have to be finely honed. We do all the PUZZLES in the *I* (good newspaper) and read Foreign Magazines etc. As to the second one Papa tells me that Rioja does age well but should be consumed on the day it is opened ! They sell more that way ! As far as Wives are concerned - Brian tells me he loves me more & more each Month as our Marriage progresses and he is improving too - say no more !
AS far as the *Painting* is concerned - yes it could be a *Painting Rag* (spoil sport !) but initially it did remind me of some of Georgia O*Keefes Paintings of *New Mexico Geology !*. Especially the lower half !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela - Brian - Smokey XOXOX

So very true in the first one.

I agree that wine improves with age but my beloved improved with age until she was taken from me.

The painting and poem do not belong together. It\'s funny (the poem) and the picture is great. Please keep them apart. You made me laugh, and then remember my turns at such upsets. Good bit of humor, though. - Phil A.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

BRIAN ICI ~ Good Afternoon Uncle Mike ~ Loved the AB & the ODE. Angela & I - still being under 40 (remember that ?) - are *Keeping up Appearances* not with cosmetics but with healthy eating & exercise & sleep & not smoking ! In the AB I saw at least three (hidden) ageing faces ~ Centre ~ Upper right - Lower left and a very distinct White & Yellow Cat (not Smokey) bottom right. Thanks for scaring !

Blessing & Peace to You & Yours
Love Brian & Angela & Smokey !

Two lines which encapsulate my appearance.

You pic today has an uncanny likeness to a close up of the threadbare sofa we threw out 20 odd years ago.(just kidding).

Both very clever. Clever art, clever humor. If only they had grown onions in Eden. Could have saved a lot of trouble.- Phil A.

Don\'t waste any time starving yourself of apples... that doctor is not going to call for fear you will cough at them. I wonder whether any GPs have been furlowed.... i really can\'t imagine what they get up yo during their \'working day\' at the moment, they\'re not seeing any patients in my neck of the orchard.

Onions, I love them.

Your srtwork today reminded me of the album cover of Chicago 3 back in the early 70\'s.
