How many times is the Daily Mail going to gasp and point at Ronnie Wood for fathering a baby in his late sixties.

Surely the 'novelty' has worn off by now? It has for me!

What do you think?

I think you should stop reading the DM. In fact, I think everyone should stop reading the DM but I'm afraid a significant portion of the population are still willing to be whipped up into a frenzy with half truths and/or they are tittilated by celebrity gossip.
Andy, you know what you're going to get from the Mail! Just throw it away when you've finished the crossword...
I was never bothered. What is he supposed to do if his younger wife wants kids? Should they never have been born? Shut up, DM and let people live their lives.

I think you are both right.

I have been a Mail reader for forty-plus years, and increasingly I find myself skipping over larger and larger sections of it - although I do enjoy the crossword.

I did skip past this over breakfast today, but it caught my eye on the on-line sidebar, you know, the one that constantly refers to 'toned tummies', 'side-boobs' 'endless legs' - and other such sub-1960's titillations.
I only know of these matters of import when they appear on here.

I hope the children wore better party gear than some of the grown ups ;-)
there never was a novelty for me AH! It's well known that men can father children more or less at any age past puberty so nothing to rave about really. Although I don't think I'd want to start again with a nipper but I guess Mr Wood has servants for all that baby stuff anyway. Surprised you are a Mail reader though, I'd have you down as a Guardianista.
Journos have to read all the papers whether they like them or not. Doing the crosswords is beyond the call of duty though.

TTT - //Surprised you are a Mail reader though, I'd have you down as a Guardianista. //

You are not the first to be surprised.

In the early days of my frequent exchanges with my learned friend AOG, he would frequently criticise my jibing at his favourite news source, and I would always remind him that I was also a daily reader - I think he remembers now.
how old was former Beatle Paul McCartney when he last became a father?

I would never consider myself a 'journo' in the standard use of that term - I always refer to myself as a music writer, because I don't deal in news, and I don't write for a daily paper.

That excuses me from having to read all the papers - thank heavens - although I will read any music publication I can find, in addition to those I write for.

Are you trying to wind me up???

LOL!
LOL :)
A Rolling Stone gathers no moss.
This is all news to me, I've being off planet for a few days... good to know the DM keeps me updated. As an aside didn't that fella that voiced dangermouse have a child at 68... I could be wrong though.
Had he been responsible he wouldn't have married someone who wanted kids when he had reached an age when he is likely to pop off before any offspring were that old. No, they should not have been born with him as their father. Meanwhile who cares if one of the articles in a newspaper isn't to someone's liking ? Turn the page and see what else there is.
Well my grandad was born in 1853 and my dad in 1922 so can he get a mention in the DM do you think? Have to dig him up mind.

One of the most wonderful things about love is that we don't choose who we love, so the notion of loving someone and being 'responsible' doesn't work. Any man would want to have children with the woman he loves, and although I wouldn't personally embark on parenthood at my age (61) it is not for me, or anyone else to deny Mr Wood his happiness. I would have reservations about the morality of the situation, but that is an individual choice.

//Meanwhile who cares if one of the articles in a newspaper isn't to someone's liking ? Turn the page and see what else there is. //

And that's an individual choice as well!
One can choose which love interests to follow up.

One can choose not to turn the page, especially if one is a masochist, but still, who cares ? The option's still available.
The poor child.
