I am what I am oh, go on then, get it out of your system - "and what I am needs no excuses" and I let people take me as they find me. It probably helps that I'm a writer and talker rather than a swimwear model, but even when I'm on television or in front of any sort of audience I never find myself wondering about how they think I look.
The size of my nose doesn't make a button of difference to my views on devolution: although there are moments when I'd quite like to sweep my hair back in a theatrical gesture during a speech. The other thing is that I've sort of grown into my looks. I was quite angular and hard faced when I was younger, but I think the assorted sags, bags, overhangs and wibbily-wobbliness have given me a gentler, softer, less mad look.

What is the problem with looking the age you are? Fine, choose the sort of clothes, creams, lotions and hairstyles that suit you and highlight certain features, but why the need to try and halt the aging process?
Why give enormous amounts of money to surgeons to make you into something you are not? Why make yourself a figure of ridicule to the people who knew you before you got "the work done"? The elderly I have known for years still look like themselves. Smiles and sparkling eyes never change. And it's wonderful to see those looks passed down through their children and grandchildren.
Aging is often a very beautiful, almost magical thing. We should champion and celebrate a life lived - a life reflected in the real face of the owner. People have got used to me as I am. They've grown accustomed to my face. It's mine and it's always going to be mine. Clarence Day got it right: "Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character. No such look transpired unfortunately, and today I still have a head full of hair and not a grey one in sight.
Well, pardon me for breathing but let me say here and now, quite categorically, that I do not use hair dye. Nor ever have. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders. It often indicates a user profile. Log out.
