‘Don’t let ageing get you down. It’s too hard to get back up.’
John Wagner

Like a valuable antique, maybe your smooth finish has become a little lined and your legs 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!

This joyful collection of quotations celebrates the lighter side of ageing, and shows that it really is the life in your years that counts.

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, this book will show you that it really is the life in your years that counts.

There’s been a revolution in the family; it’s now all about the kids.
We’ve moved on from children being ‘seen and not heard’, but we’re now plagued with the worry of ending up with ‘that child’ – the one who’s running amok and is ill-prepared for life.
 
This book combines contemporary and traditional childrearing methods, bringing fresh thinking to some of the essential parenting issues of our time:
• Managing screen use
• Encouraging independence
• Finding the balance between school and play
• Compromising between parenting that’s pushy and not involved enough
• Establishing the ‘best of both worlds’ approach that
works in the modern world for modern families.
 
In this manifesto of new old-fashioned parenting there’s no pandering, no spoiling, and definitely no dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets at dinner time.
