That Certain Age

That Certain Age
We were walking down the street in Prestatyn the other day when Lovely Hubby was accosted by an elderly lady.
She said "Were you?"  
He looked blank, so did I for a moment, then I remembered that he was wearing this T shirt, and pointed it out to him.
He laughed and said "I was" ... to which she replied "guess how old I am".  Lovely Hubby, not being in the know, gave a very good guess at 85,, so I stepped in quickly with 76 .... "I'm 86" she beamed.
As we walked away I told him that next time an elderly lady, or any lady for that matter, asks you to guess her age guess low.  If she's over a certain age she'll want to boast about how old she really is and if she's below a certain age she'll simply be very flattered at being younger looking.
I wonder though what that certain age is!!
