Can anyone tell at what age you no longer fall over but start having falls ?

Can anyone tell at what age you no longer fall over but start having falls ?

I think 60. Never described anyone under 60 as having had a fall.

Coincidentally it's the same age you can start being racist and people will just smile at your old fashioned ways.

Whatever age you are when you discover Long Island Iced Tea.

And you can walk round with your flies open and nobody says a word

You'll power through. Your public believe in you.

They do. And it's not a nice word either.

I have never read her books I assume she was a racy Barbara Cartland. Anyway she brought joy to a lot of people and considering how many humans do the opposite we could do with a few more like her.

RIP.

Her husband was asked what Jilly wore in bed.

"Dogs, mainly. And if I lean over for something hairy in the night I might get bitten"

I think there's a few years before having a fall when falling over is known as taking a tumble.

I'm well past the taking a tumble years and now dread having a fall.

What a legacy for Jilly Cooper that we've used her unexpected passing to validate a system for aging an individual based on the nomenclature used for their mishaps.
