Do not order the sirloin steak at the Giraffe, Heathrow Terminal 5.

  What have you got against giraffes?  :qv:  I'm sure they can cook as well as you or I!

It would explain a lot if that meal had been prepared by one.

  Exactly!  The giraffe's head is way up THERE and the grill is way down THERE, so ...  :laugh:

  Oily hair can become dry as menopause approaches!  :witch:

Skin too. Not evenly, but age does get the skin dryer.

Not menopausal yet, but my skin finally is dry, my hands I need to rub with cream, to make them stand out from sandpaper. That's a massive difference compared with years ago.

I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I found that my nails got dryer after 60.  I put heavy duty hand cream daily on the finger and toe nails.

  I still have the dreaded oily T-zone on my face.  Nails have always been hopeless because
  of all the handwashing I do, all the immersion in water.  My nails are brittle and I keep them
   very very short!  Nails are nothing but dirt traps!  They must not be allowed to grow!  :arrr:

I learned about the existence of a dreaded oily T zone, reading this thread. I never feared it while I may have had it. If I ever had it, I outgrew it.

  I don't dread it anymore.  It is what it is.  :meditate:

  Metopic suture in adults isn't exactly rare, but we're in the minority.

  I've read 10-12% as an estimate.  I knew I was outside the box.  :trollskull:
