Halifax is an amazing entertainment town, but too many events start too late for the over-50 crowd. Giggle if you will, but once over this age it feels like every night is a school night again. Mid-lifers love entertainment but also love our sleep. Can we consider 8 p.m. a great starting time for events? Not 10 p.m. —from the office of Willing, Wanting and Weary

I’m 34 and I agree.
My dad is 71 and he can stay up until 1am watching baseball and hockey.
I’m 32 and I also agree.
like your dad, 42, I can stay up til the wee hours, but I am at home in my comfies, not oofed into a push up bra and heels downtown.
i’m 64 and i say to you now, some, but not all these things are geared to the younger, under 25 crowd. us old fucks have to be pretty damn energetic to keep up with this shit. but i do agree, 10 p.m. sucks donkey nuts.
I endorse this bitch wholeheartedly!
I like the after ten crowd more.
Thinking about push-up bras and heels now. There goes my day.
Well, I’m 52. I don’t go out until after 10pm at least! I’m known to close bars when on vacation. While I’d love to see GDM in a push-up bra and heels, the thought of them does nothing to distract me. Now… army boots, chaps and a harness…!
darling meaty, the sight of me in a pushup bra and heels would surely cure you of any lingering hetero urges.
if i could get some device that pushed my dugs up and out they would be entering a room 5 minutes ahead of the rest of me. (and wandering about in there unsupervised – gawd help us)
@Good dog Molly — a Battle Axe is still regarded as a thing of beauty in the eyes of some peeps.
Hey Meaty, ya know i have two out of three on that sweet little list of yours……wrong personal equipment tho, damn!
Vinyl chaps for surfing, perhaps?
Lol Ivan–close but no cigar…..sounds like sexy idea tho 😉
