QUESTION: How do Texan belles worried about their forthcoming fortieth birthday put their minds at rest? If they're Jerry Hall professional sweetie-pie and rock wife they reach for their smalls and pose for a series of still-lifes in lingerie which is barely visible to the naked eye Of course darling it's not tacky at all because it IS the latest edition of Vogue Or should that be Vague? But it's her three kids I feel sorry i i i Jerry Hall: still-life in lingerie for most Will she leave copies of Vogue around the house so that her sprogs can admire her scantily-clad form at leisure? It's difficult enough for most children to imagine their parents doing anything more adventurous than sharing the odd chaste kiss now and then but to be reminded in glorious technicolour that your mother is a sex er kitten must be deeply painful his shell?

Encapsulating a whole new me! THERE'S an advert for a mineral supplement called Co-enzyme QlO which keeps catching my eye "Your energy restored in 60 days" it promises And it shows a woman bounding around It is so tempting to believe that your worst personality traits could be cured by taking a pill I'd love to bound Bound bound bound all day long Like a labrador pup Up hill down dale tra-la-ing all the way Truth is I can just about manage to bound downstairs in the morning but only because I love breakfast so much and after that I'm afraid it's all downhill Sitting the monsters down teaching them to write Japanese A few triple selkos over discarded building bricks followed by a quick head-butt of the living room door as I squelch over some overlooked spillages from yesterday and my daily dose of toddler-induced inertia is in full swing Where has all that personal dynamism or whatever it's called gone I wonder? Taking vitamin supplements must be the answer Perhaps I'd stop bellowing at the kids and make everything a game that's what the books say ha ha and when I emptied dustbins they would no longer drip with cornflakey milk or coffee dregs My life could so simply changed it seems with just a few capsules I'd be sitting the monsters (my tot and her cousin) down teaching them to write Japanese haiku instead of banishing them to the living room for more enforced alphabet-learning from a frog in front of the TV That is if it wasn't for the fact that I am eternally wedded to inefficiency brain decay and inactivity And because I just haven't quite got the energy to trundle down to the chemist to buy the things!
