"'You're never too old to become younger' - Mae West "The Oldie isn't a magazine for the old. Readers of all ages... find it an indispensable antidote to the triviality of the twenty-first century" P. D. James"
Product Description
'You're never too old to become younger' - Mae West Are you a KIPPER? What is NANG, for goodness' sake? Where the heck is the RHUBARB TRIANGLE? Do you suffer from AFFLUENZA? Are you (gasp) BUFF? What is a FLASH MOB, a BLOG, and SLOW FOOD? And what on earth is CHICKENABILITY? All is made clear in Bling, Blogs and Bluetooth. Collated from The Oldie's 'Modern Life' columns, every new, trendy, obscure or just downright odd aspect of modern living, from speed-dating to Pilates, is described with wry bemusement. The result: an alternative guide to contemporary Britain that will ensure readers young and less-young know their chavs from their tweenagers.
