53deerpark I enjoy the beach, but I would rather lie out in a deck chair reading a book, listening to my Ipod, or just working on my tan. My mom is a good swimmer and she really enjoys the waves. She too was stung by a jelly fish many years ago but that has not put her...

53deerpark If you've already had the surgery I hope it went well for you. If not, don't sweat, as if it's keyhole, you should be okay after a week. My mom had surgery near her belly button to remove her gall bladder last summer and she was back at work within 10 days and...

53deerpark Those who are considered old (whatever age that is) often take the form of wine that is still maturing, in that you can never learn enough from them. I work in publishing and the most astute and clever person in our office is 66. He always gives sound advice...

53deerpark Adopt a more positive outlook like that tomorrow is the start of the rest of my life and that I still have many more exciting things to do and places to see. My mum is 63 and looks much younger than she is and enjoys hillwalking and regular swims and still...

I guess this is targeted towards people over 40. How well are you dealing with aging? Do you like what you see when you look in the mirror? I am 53 years old and must admit that I have not had an easy time accepting the aging...

53deerpark Liverpool since 1978 when they beat Spurs 7-0 at Anfield. They had a super squad back then - much more quality than the present lot - who at stage don't look like ending their long wait for a League title.

53deerpark I think the one piece can be a classy outfit and it really enhances the figure of many. Just as the sun rises and sets it shall always be here. The bikini is also a wonderful creation and seeing my mother in her turquoise bikini at the age of 63 on her Spanish...

Do you think they have the quality players to win the title again? judging from their recent matches this season, something is seriously lacking in their attack. It is just not flowing as smooth as last season. In my opinion, they...

53deerpark I think Manchester United will come up short in the Premier League this season - with Chelsea to be champions and Liverpool possibly finishing outside the top four.

53deerpark My mother is 63 - yet she could easily pass for somebody in their 40s. Her friends regularly compliment her on her looks - yet some are baffled, maybe even jealous as to how she maintains her figure. To that end, she still wears a bikini on the beach - so...

In my opinion there really isn't an age limit to when a woman should stop wearing a bikini. As long as she has the body for it then I say go for it. Do you think a woman shouldn't wear a bikini after a certain age?
