Chin up Sherry! Im not far behind you in the age stakes. And if its any
consolation I felt exactly like you, but its worse, that was when I turned
30 :-(

Yeah, bastards :-)) Richard Gere is a good example! Another thing that
intrigues me is beards (not a fan of huge ones eg Z-Z Top .. too prickly &
ticklish) but they seem to suit the older fella. Softens their image eg
Sean Connery.

To be honest I THINK most of these actresses wouldnt even be noticed if it
wasnt for what they wore, or lack of ;-)) (eg Liz Hurley, Jennifer Lopez),
who they were sleeping with at the time (usually an idiot rock star),
making it in to Playboy or strutting their stuff for a soapie or calendar.
Might be nice to ogle at but who wants to cuddle a bag of bones! Look at
Pamela Anderson .. one minute looking like a Dolly Parton version of the
Barbie doll & now looks like an hour glass with spare ribs & so much
silicone in her lips they look ghastly. Without the makeup, false
nails/eyelasses & pumped up hair/wigs they wouldnt be noticed.

>See I told you 40 is having an effect on my mind:)

I can see you need to ring me for some counselling .. Im the cheapest
psychiatrist around :-) Strike's my best referral so far ;-)

Doan worry luv .. the weather you are now receiving is what Perth had for
the last fortnight. Our winter is so weird this year .. its been the
coldest, dampest damn season Ive seen here in 13 years. And last night fog
rolled in while I was at the camera club presenting a slide show on diving
around Fiji. I thot for a minute that I was in London. Quite a stressful
drive home that night!
