[QUOTE=JacynWade;116658]Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Ivan.
Of course Jaycn there rae some of us men with very well polished heads and not so fat, more of a little rotund maybe. Ladies with grey hair, if it is done in a good manner, can look very sophisticated. Ordinary women on the other hand..................... maybe we wont go there!

Excuse me young lady, but treacle tin faces? I will have you know mine is pure Tate and Lyle Golden Syrup. Unlike the beautiful ladies with skin like peaches and cream, though with some it is more like Rhubarb and custard.

Cheers

Are you all talking cockney now ? Syrup = Syrup of figs / Wigs, Treacle = Beautiful Ladies, as in hello my treacle. Peaches and Cream = A KIND OF DREAM. Tin faces = been (bin) places. Rhubarb and custard = Mustard. Been away to long already.
