Well, there is <em>no</em> way, that I'll be behaving in a 40yr old manner.

I am staring down the barrel of 40. In exactly one month and 12 days, I will be 39, and what exactly have I done with my life?! Eh? Apart from produce my wonderful child of course. Not a fecking lot is the answer. And how shall I be celebrating this almost, but not quite milestone birthday? Well, apparently, the day after I shall be going paint-balling for the first time ever, with one other girl, and <strong>23</strong> boys!!! All of whom are so stuffed full to the gunnel's with testosterone, that I think I'll be sprouting testicles from inhaling the stuff.<br /> However, 40 is the new 20, so that's all good then. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3113 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 15:49:25 +0000 Scroat 3113@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ahem... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3106 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 14:54:35 +0000 Mary Evans 3106@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ah - perhaps I'm just an ugly teen and waiting to blossom into a beautiful swan. 30 is the new teens, right?

The YM is but ten, and although going through the pre-puberty hormonal thing, has a while to go before the spots kick in. Mr B escaped spots entirely (bastard), and I didn't suffer from them until I'd had the YM at 28, so he might just be lucky.<br /> I had to hide the YM's drum kit from him at 3 due to his tendency to use the sticks to whack everything in sight. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3090 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 12:34:50 +0000 MADJEZ 3090@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Wasn't Brad Pitt famously a spotty ugly duckling as a teen though. Mr Square I wouldn't give my 2 year old daughter an electric guitar as she would almost certainly smack me (and everyone else) round the head with it... delicate little flower that she is ! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3076 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 11:01:18 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3076@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ah Mr Square, it happens all the time on here. I am in fact a 73yr old man masquerading as a 38yr old woman in the hope of befriending all these NB lovelies.<br /> It seems to be working, and as long as no-one finds out, I'll be sa...<br /> Damn, damn, damn. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3069 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 10:44:35 +0000 John Square 3069@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Isn't this known as "grooming"?</p> <p>I never thought I'd see this side of the internet. </p> <p>Well, not on here, at least. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3063 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 10:22:34 +0000 Mary Evans 3063@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ask him to give me a call in 10 years.

That's exactly what I said - wouldn't put my kids through it.

What kind of fame hungry harridan would put their child through that!? Not that the Young master has any special talent that would lead him to wish to appear on one of those shows, but even if he did, there is no way I'd let him go on until he was at least 16.</p> <p>Holly has no doubt been told how special and talented she is for her whole life, and for someone to say otherwise would be devastating. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3050 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 09:46:02 +0000 Mary Evans 3050@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Especially if they are 10 years old and far too young to handle that kind of pressure in my humble... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3049 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 09:37:18 +0000 The All New Jeni B 3049@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I don't watch any of the so called reality talent shows, but is it not sort of a given that people on them will burst into tears?! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=1186#post-3048 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 09:30:58 +0000 Mary Evans 3048@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Eeeek - was on Five Live Breakfast show this morning, talking about children on TV and found myself in a rather intense debate with Nina Steele, mother of Holly Steele, who famously burst into tears on Britain's Got Talent... forever proof that I am not a morning person... </p>
