And I'll never be a member of the Red Hat Society. More power to 'em, and no offense meant, but . . . imo that's a cheap way to use that fantastic poem. :hide:
No, :yourock:
BTW, my new hat DOES go, and DOES suit me.

I wasn't aware (ignorant me) that the red hat society had anything to do with the "purple" poem!
You're right though, it IS a cheap way to use that fantastic poem.
See I KNEW :yourock: !!
When I Am Old.
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple With a red hat that doesn't go, and doesn't suit me, And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves And satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter. I shall sit down on the pavement when I am tired, And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells, And run my stick along the public railings, And make up for the sobriety of my youth. I shall go out in my slippers in the rain And pick the flowers in other people's gardens, And learn to spit. You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat, And eat three pounds of sausages at a go, Or only bread and pickle for a week, And hoard pens and pencils and beer mats and things in boxes. But now we must have clothes that keep us dry, And pay our rent and not swear in the street, And set a good example for the children. We will have friends to dinner and read the papers. But maybe I ought to practise a little now? So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised, When suddenly I am old and start to wear purple!
