You Know You're 60 When . . .




The author of You Know You're 50 When... returns with a hilarious collection of quips and one-liners on the trials, travails, and (occasional) perks of reaching 60, illustrated throughout with comic line drawings.

Are you “getting on in years,” or know someone who is? Thinking of changing your birth certificate to show a more favorable birth date? You may lie about your age, but your age won’t lie to you!

            Not sure how to tell when you’re about to reach that fun sixtieth birthday? 

Here are some clues:
WebMD is your home page
When asked, “Who’s your doctor?” you have to reply, “Which one?”
An outbreak of acne makes you feel like a teenager again
At your class reunion, you note with satisfaction that the captain of the football team wears a hearing aid
The meadows where you sowed your wild oats are now shopping malls
That empty seat on the bus has your name on it
Your pharmacist greets you with “What’ll it be, pal?” 
 

Getting older is not only fun . . . it’s funny! And with You Know You’re 60 When . . ., you’ll be laughing as you go kicking and screaming over the hill, happily clutching your chest!

About the author

Richard Smith

Richard Smith grew up in regional Queensland where he developed his love of cricket as an enthusiastic but inconsistent opening batter at school. He grew a deep knowledge of the history of the game and its greats by choosing greatest-ever teams with his cricket-mad grandmother. Richard carved out a career in accounting and finance but has remained a cricket tragic and will happily debate the merits of his selections in World XIs with anyone. He lives in Brisbane, is married to Sarah, and they have two daughters; Alexandra and Georgia.
