Description
Just like a valuable antique, your smooth finish may have become a little lined and your legs may creak from time to time. But don't worry: even if you no longer have all your original parts and nobody can find your instruction manual, it's great to be vintage!
Whether you're a silver surfer or a golden oldie, you've still got what it takes (it just takes a little longer than it used to). Yes, there's the memory loss, wrinkles and the receding hairline, but you're worldly-wise and have a lifetime of anecdotes to show for it all. And besides, we'll all be old-timers one day - but today it's your turn!
Full of senior sagacity and elderly erudition, this spirited and joyful collection of quotes and musings about our latter years celebrates the lighter side of ageing. Encouraging you to laugh, embrace and love the ride, You're Not Old, You're Vintage will show you that it really is the life in your years that counts.
