Senior Moments

Rate this book
Have you had a Senior Moment yet? Maybe you know someone who's had a few? Check this list to know for sure:
You can remember being told the King was dead (George, not Elvis).
You still say 'colour television', and you watch television on a television.
Your home phone rings and you answer it. (And you still have a phone, not a 'landline'.)
You boast about 'doing it' three times a night and that's just getting up to pee.
You realise that your wardrobe has become ironic. You're not back in fashion, but you're hip. (And ironically, you now have an artificial hip).

If you answered 'yes' to one or more of the above, congratulations! You are officially a Senior and this book is here to guide you through your best years (i.e. the past). Stroll, or maybe shuffle, down Nostalgia Avenue and bask in the glory of growing old disgracefully.

(If you are a Young Person, this is the easiest Senior gift idea ever. You're welcome!)

This is quite a funny book but at times it did get a bit boring. A light-hearted read that can be read in bits and bobs so you can read, leave it and come back without missing out or forgetting what was going on.

It is a book that will make you smile and think of what is to come or what is just about on you (age-wise). A bit of fun.

This book was entertaining.
I had some genuine laugh out loud moments whilst reading this book. I will admit that as this book is aimed at an older audience a lot of the references went over my head.
Angus Fitzsimons did a wonderful job with this book. It covered so many different facets of life and is really easy to follow. I loved that each subject had its own chapter and the chapters were broken up into different sub categories.
Even though this book is aimed at seniors there is a lot in it for readers of different ages. I knew a far bit of what was being spoken about, and my Mum; who isn’t a senior knew even more then I did.
I cant remember even reading a book that is aimed at Seniors before. To be honest I had never really thought about it until I read this book. Now that I have read this book I believe that more books; especially funny books, aimed at an older audience are needed.
Senior Moments by Angus Fitzsimons is perfect for older readers.

Surprisingly I found this book quite humorous. Although I did learn a thing or two about the past, I thought it would be some real lessons inside. However, the book could have done without the lessons from Funerals/weddings etc.
