It's that time again - an 'eugh' story in the news with the report a 66 year old woman is due to be Britain's oldest mother after undergoing IVF abroad. But maybe she has hit on a credit crunching, environmentally friendly idea to replenish the population.
1 - It will only take one journey to the post office to pick up her pension and the child benefit.
2 -A whole new boom business could be created: mobility scooters-cum-pushchairs. I reckon we could build them at Longbridge thus putting lots of men back into employment
3 - With the older parents taking up the population replenishment, all those of working age can work without the hassle of maternity leave etc. There'll have to be a huge workforce to cope with the increased demand for soft biscuits which is the staple diet of young children and OAPs as they watch daytime TV - another growth area. There'll be new channels like Countdown 24 to launch.
4 - The build up of old person and young baby flatulence in one house could easily be syphoned off and used as an alternative fuel.
5 - There'll come a time when mother and child can share clothes. Mother will think its still in fashion, child will think its 'retro chic'.
6 - When she hits her 80s and her teenage child has to make a decision on where to put her - easy. She can just join them in University halls of residence. She'll feel at home sleeping all day, popping pills and getting so disorientated she pisses in the sink.
