Thanks LM - but at 42 and with 43 fast approaching, I think I just make it.


According to Collins Dictionary, this is "... usually considered to occur approximately between the ages of 40 and 60".

Yes mee too DJKQ. I haven't posted on this thread because I couldn't think of anything I wanted and then I read your post and I thought yes, spot on. I wan't things money can't buy.

Yes, philosophers make that point about just about everything...but - alas - I am no philosopher...I like the simple life and live by simple rules which come from deep within...my instincts...my intuition etc...it is those which tell me what is happy/sad, good/evil, black/white, simple/complex etc. etc. Call me a simpleton.


The only things that truly matter in life are those that money cannot buy. But I am quite certain you know that already.

Yeah but having said all that, my fabulous motorbike and more importantly riding it, makes me so very happy.

Life ain't about the destination it's about the journey.

Yeah right, but money will help prevent you having to walk the entire length.


Now, back to bed.

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway. 
    • Lots of lovely lilac shrubs in flower at the moment. Would anyone consider giving me a cutting? It would involve digging out a basal off shoot, roots and all. I'd love one for my new garden but I'm so broke that I have to fill it with plants the slow way!
    • You are welcome to have mine for free. I was just about to post! Three panels - 6ft by 5ft - weathered/natural on one side and painted brown on the other.
