Well, have you?
I think maybe there's still a bit of life in me despite the hair on my chin. In fact, a couple of years ago I was in Brussels on business, a bloke lept up from a cafe he was sitting outside and followed me along the street. He was an artist and wanted to take me to dinner and paint me!! ha ha ha
Of course I didn't but it was nice to be asked and I shall remember it and tell my daughters about it when my hair is completely white and my teeth are staring back at me from my bedside table.

I believe the correct term is "She's a face like a plasterers radio" .
Not that i'm saying you have Poppette, i'm sure you're very attractive :oops:

Something used for entertainment that gets covered / speckled in white paint. Now let ones mind drift into carnality and filth.......... a pejorative term for a young lady who fulfils the deinition above, but not necessarily paint!
Pearl Necklace?

:roll: Right, forget the artist bit - I walked past a guy in a cafe, I smiled at him, he wasn't too shabby, he left his food and followed me and asked me to dinner. That'll do me
he was probably a nutter0 -
As an afterthought, someone on the MTB forum has asked:What's the best full face under 100 quid??
I could but smile - the joys of innocence of the MTB section compared to the smut and perversion of the road section!

That's what I had understood Paddy to mean too :oops:0 -
I received an email at work yesterday from a female member of staff who said she can't help looking at my bum when I walk past her! She also thought that based on my looks I am 25 years old. At 31years old I thought that was quite good going! I knew all those years of cycling were good for something!"Seve Ballesteros, the Spanish bull.

Man says ' you can paint my porch, its round the back, paints in the garage and I'll pay you when I return. Comes back, guy says all finished have a look - man rants 'daft bas***d I did not say my porche'
