Ageing. It's a Bugger....

[Mike Reed]

This thread is showing its age a bit now but is it too old to score at 20 (pp)

There are many more delights of ageing to focus on yet..

I'm wracking my brains..........

This country and much of the world seems to be going to Hell in a handcart, with Covid strains providing the locomotion. However, this may just be a negative psychological aspect of aging. Discuss or disgus ting.

Now having reached 75, I now know what my Mum was on about aches, pains, tablets etc. Fortunately I only take blood pressure tablets but a few of my friends are diabetics.

So, how well is everyone's Cialis working?

 

[srh]

It's a flop.

 

[Bob McC]

Had to Google what that was.

 

[Mullardman]

Stop implying my thread is flagging......

About 90 minutes usually but 13 hours if you swim it.

I had a colonoscopy this year. Picolax is no longer given (normally) as it doesn't clear out one half of the bowel properly. I was given something called Moviprep which arrived in sachets about the size of a bag of sugar.

It is the most disgusting thing I have ever eaten/drunk and I had to drink pints of the stuff - twice. Think flat, salty lemsip. The outgoings were like a luminous golden laser.

The procedure was painless enough although it did feel as though I constantly wanted to crap myself which of course was impossible. Moviprep saw to that.

It is more palatable if made up the evening before, and refrigerated. It tells you on the packet how many hours it lasts for. Many hours.

Also drinking it via a straw is more pleasant.

I tried it room temperature and cold but honestly I'd rather have drunk a turd smoothie.

I got a product called Suprep. They suggested premixing and chilling, but I had chilled water to use, so just mixed it up and down the hatch. Didn't seem so bad to drink to me. Results were dramatic but not really uncomfortable. No untoward incidents.

Gosh but that thought just made me make faeces,

As I’ve been told that at 65 I’m way too young to challenge the premise of the thread, can I ask at what age ageing officially becomes ‘a bugger’?

Am also waiting 'til normality arrives at Specsavers!

Me too! It was utterly ridiculous the last time that I paid a visit. I bought a new pair of specs which need adjusting, but I'm holding out until it settles a bit.

When everything is a pain in the bottom.

65 and three quarters…

Around the same time as a Bright Young Swinger* becomes a Dirty Old Man.

(*old meaning of "swinger", as in Disney's The Aristocats)
