Sorry TS, I'd have to agree to disagree, the image I now have in my head of your music teacher, has slightly short trouser, socks & sandals, and a wacky waistcoat. No, no, no...
I'm only here cos I got on the wrong bus. -
And what instrument does he teach? Hope its not the organ.
Hospital consultants sometimes wear bow ties and I've always assumed it was because a real tie might fall into an open wound.Comment

You vixens !
Actually veggie, you were bang on the button about bowties and consultants. Doctors' ties in hospitals are a horrendous source of potential pathogens, there was a rather notorious study done once which made everyone gasp. But long before that, the surgeons had such a problem with gore that they had switched to bow ties. Not that they realised it killed the patients, but it made their ties a mess.
There's no point reading history if you don't use the lessons it teaches.

Thanks Snohare - not for calling me a vixen but for confirming that, somewhere at the back of this deeply addled brain, there is something that does remember things! One of the local vets wears a bow tie - I don't take my dogs to him!Comment

Look on the bright side, you can train himOriginally posted by di View PostMy word, I've just been chatted up by a 22 year old
....I could be their mother!
Seriously though, I've never understood societies need for men to be older. Women live on average a good few years more than men. So surely it makes sense for the man to be slightly younger
Up until my wife, all my previous partners have been older than me. I even dated a 42 year old when I was 19 (this was the biggest age gap) and it didn't last due to pressures from others as they thought the age gap was a problem
EDIT : reread post and wanted to clarify the following
NO I DID NOT WANT A MOMMY figure!!!(as you can gather I got that a lot) I'm a rather stubborn independent git

My motto is, each to their own....but sorry, as a mum and Aunt, I just could not go there.
It really made me feel...sick,worried and sad. I was given MSN and Skype details FGS! Maybe you can't blame education...I can remember being the infallible teen that could take on the world and knew better than any proper adult (the one that gave details was 19)...I could've been anyone.
That said, in my early twenties, I had a brief fling with a chap in his fifties....it ended due to him being a bit of an eccentric odd one....he was an actOR don't you know.....in his twenties

Sometimes they just don't care or think they are safe, my niece who is now 17 was talking to a 50 + man from somewhere abroad but she was only 12 at the time, she said she didn't know, oh yes she did cos I had told her not long before along with not giving out phone details, addresses of friends etc even to people you know without asking the person first, she was always doing that to my daughter.Originally posted by di View PostOh Gosh!!! 22 was unnerving....NINETEEN?!?! Did these girls learn nothing about internet safety at school? I actually feel quite sick...

As a parent now, I do look at it differently Di, have to agree with you, for me it's just wrong. Was trying to point out that different things for different folks.Originally posted by di View PostMy motto is, each to their own....but sorry, as a mum and Aunt, I just could not go there.
