No, I shouldn't have. I can wear jeans. Just because you can't, it doesn't mean I have to follow your dress code. If you want to wear Rupert Bear trousers and buttoned cardigans from Dunn & Co., then crack on but I don't either want or need to.
Wrong.

FACT.

No, I'm not. You're not allowed to wear jeans whereas most of us can wear the attire of our choice. Now get back under Mrs Beaker's thumb.


Fact.
All you need to do to understand why old people are not allowed to wear jeans is look in the mirror.

I'm not as old as you.

Fact.


Just because Mrs Beaker doesn't let you wear jeans, it doesn't mean you can project your Dunn & Co. attire onto the rest of us.

Fact.


I've looked in the mirror and I look pretty damned good in jeans, especially in Levi 541 athletic fit. However, as is unusual for those in my age bracket, my shoulders are a lot wider than my waist, which would explain a lot.


Fact.


Now you run along and let us adults dress how we choose and not how Mrs B makes you dress. And level up your window sills why you're at it.

Minkey has explained better than me.

Black jeans = cool.

Blue jeans on elderly man = trying to recapture youth…and failing

I know this as Mrs B told me.

I have black, faded blue, dark blue, intermediate blue, grey and, um, one other colour (not sure, closest I can describe is grey that got washed with a green sock. Mrs P calls them stone colour and she's never wrong). I look good in all of them.

I'm middle aged, not elderly. I know this because I'm going to live to be 112 years old.

I may have bought another motorbike well I will pay for it on collection on Saturday and then it will be ‘bought’ I’m unlikely to lose it as it’s a family sale, my wife’s cousin’s deceased hubby’s. Sue is happy I’m getting it, although it is definitely a long term project, and she’s also said yes (for now) for us to set off on holiday at the end of next month to visit Norway again.
