On my days off Dorothy gets me up around 8 am for a wee.
We then race each other back to bed for a lie in, where I know she will eventually wake me again around 10 30 or earlier depending on her pent up excitement pre proper walk.
This morning the Church bell woke us both.
At first I thought that there must be a funeral being called in but being Wednesday morning I then realised that is was a Church service in progress.
Someone inexperienced was pulling the bell, the bell that was rejuvenated by the Community Association and last rung by Hattie and myself during the clap for carers evenings….
Anyhow the bell rang around a dozen times setting off the lonely hound that lives in a kennel on London Road.
He howled like a banshee for ages
I walked the dogs and was stood drinking a bucket of coffee on the patio when Church service was over
And Mrs Trellis appeared sans bobble hat.
She wore her best church coat.
The red one.
She looked at my T shirt and told me I looked cold and when I moved my arms added brightly
“ Aren’t you a little old for snoopy?”
I suddenly had a Carrie Bradshaw moment when I looked down an realised I was wearing my snoopy T shirt.
“ I don’t know , am I too old to wear snoopy? I asked and she thought for a moment
“A little” she replied seriously .
I’ve kept the T shirt on.
I know, I’m a real rebel bitch
I’m meeting my friend Colin for lunch at Porth Eirias too
But I may wear a jacket
Over snoopy of course.
Never too old for Snoopy. Ever.
ReplyDeleteI never liked him when I was young
DeleteI like rebels,and I am a huge snoopy fan ( honest )I used to have a mug which said I'm allergic to mornings I think that's what it said.Wear you T shirt with pride.You are Never too old for Snoopy.xx ps the dog down the road is he maltreated ?
ReplyDeleteNo , he’s a working dog , but I don’t like to see him in his kennel outside
DeleteAge is how old you feel. Some days I'm 8, others, 80. Today I'm about 20, but my knees might disagree when I move! Wear your Snoopy T with pride. At least there's no gravy stains (that I can see). lol xx
ReplyDeleteI usually feel around 28 if truth be known
DeleteDon't know whether I am older or younger than Mrs Trellis but I say categorically that you will never be too old for Snoopy
ReplyDeleteShe’s a lot younger than you pat but not in psychi
DeleteThe answer is no. Snoopy is ageless. Also, the subtle rainbow? Win.
ReplyDeleteAnd I could just imagine that lonely hound that lives in the kennel...
XOXO
Yes I like the sweet colours
DeleteI say you're never too old to wear whatever you like!!
ReplyDeleteAn Incontinence pad?
DeleteSnoopy is timeless and ageless. I'd wear it very happily, though probably not today as it's very cold over here.
ReplyDeleteYes it was a mistake here, I’m now in a fluffy top
DeleteNever too old!
ReplyDelete🧑🏼🦽
DeleteBah! You are never too old for Snoopy or anything else you enjoy. When you give into that way of thinking, you truly become old. I am proud of all of my Cartoon and Superhero shirts, my comic and toy collections, my coloring books, and legos, and everything else I have continued to enjoy since childhood. Keep on wearing who and what you want!

The older I get, the younger I dress
DeleteOnly the young at heart can wear Snoopy t-shirts!
ReplyDelete🧸
DeleteAre you too old for Snoopy? Well, that depends upon whose approval you're seeking. Don't worry about getting a consensus.
ReplyDeleteI’m not xx
DeleteI am wearing captain caveman t-shirt and Harry Potter socks.
ReplyDeleteYou are in good company
I always wanted a wacky races t shift
Deletethere is still time
DeleteIt's a little too straight for HM Colin. Surely one of your big gay rainbow t-shirts would be more suitable x
ReplyDeleteI’ve got plenty of those mave x
DeleteWe don't stop playing because we are older, we get old because we stop playing, never too old for the wisdom of snoopy.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite snoopy quote
Delete"A dog's life is a lonely life. Cats hate us, horses step on us, wild animals despise us.
*sigh*
Thank goodness for people!"
well, take that mrs. trellis!
ReplyDeleteLol , thank god she doesn’t read this rubbish lol
DeleteThe older we get the younger we get mentally so Snoopy is very appropriate!
ReplyDeleteAmen
DeleteNo no never-if you were walking in matching trouser bottoms some may say a little eccentric but so what-I just think Mrs Trellis is so fond of you John she likes to keep an eye on you like a mother or aunt-and it is a very nice t shirt too x
ReplyDeleteShe does like to keep an eye on me, you are right
DeleteNever too old for Snoopy! I just got a small stuffed Snoopy and Woodstock last year myself.
ReplyDeleteLol ,I always thought of you as a Garfield girl
DeleteNever never too old for Snoopy!
ReplyDelete👌🏻
DeleteNever too old for Snoopy. Age is a state of mind and if you feel young, celebrate it. Life is too short! xx
ReplyDeleteI'm with Pattypan ... age is a state of mind. The tee would not have been in adult size were it not to have been made for adults, but perhaps she would have preferred one of your Walking Dead tees.
ReplyDeleteYou are never too old for Snoopy nor any of the adorable Minions!
ReplyDeleteHummm I’m not sure I could get away with a minion lol
DeleteThat is a nice t-shirt! It is fine for you to wear it.
ReplyDeleteCheers Chuck
DeleteThere are shirts I gave away...reluctantly because I am to old to pull them off. Mostly the Affliction brand tees. I still miss them though.
ReplyDeleteBesides you can say you are honoring the voice of Charlie Brown from the holiday specials who took his own life last week.
DeleteLol makes a change from my 20 walking dead to shirts
DeleteSnoopy is ageless. Wear without shame.
ReplyDeleteOut and proud
DeleteYou are never too old for a bit of snoopy as Mrs Trellis well knows.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised she knew who snoopy was to be honest
DeleteThe only people too old for Snoopy are the ones who ask others "aren't you too old for Snoopy?". And I dare say those are the people who need Snoopy the most.
ReplyDeleteI’ll think about that one
DeleteSweet Mrs. Trellis was in error. Snoopy is for all of us and always will be. Oh, yes.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
What about Garfield?
DeleteSame goes for Garfield, Pooh, Calvin & Hobbs, and any other beloved forever friends! Don't you agree?
DeleteHugs!
How could you possibly be too old for Snoopy?
ReplyDeleteMrs T thought so
DeleteI wonder if Mrs T had second thoughts about her comment. Sounds like something my mother might have said. Actually, she would have said, “Take that ridiculous T-shirt off. What are you, a child?” Anyway, Snoopy is at least 53 years old himself.
DeleteNo one is ever too old for Snoopy-he is timeless.
ReplyDeleteI was going for a “ look”
DeleteTell Mrs. T., "Age is just a number."
ReplyDeleteNever!
ReplyDeleteNo one is ever too old for Snoopy! Snoopy is a classic!
ReplyDeleteno one is ever too old for snoopy x
ReplyDeleteNope you are embracing your inner child. I often go to farm for chicken food. My hubbie comes to look at the horses and hes 66!!! I shriek chickens if I see some in a garden and kitty if I see a cat. I am nearly 60 so well past childhood. Who gives a f--k?
ReplyDeleteNever too old for Snoopy!
ReplyDeleteCharles Schulz was still drawing Snoopy and Charlie Brown and the gang well into his 70's. He wasn't too old for Snoopy. I don't think anyone is ever too old for Snoopy. Ranee (MN)USA
ReplyDeleteYou're never too old for Snoopy, and maybe with your Snoopy outlook you'll never be too old for anything fun.
ReplyDeleteNever too old for Snoopy, or Pooh or Paddington. :-)
ReplyDeleteI think Mrs T needs a Snoopy T-shirt of her own ��
ReplyDeleteI love that T-shirt!! Never too old.
