Ted Grant responded:

>> For example, which sounds better... "He's an old guy." Or "He's a
gentleman of mature age." :-)

 

Steve Barbour offered:

>>>the French go one better with the expression/ translated... 

>>a man/woman of a certain age... mature, exotic, very mysterious...

>>that's you Ted...   right? <<<<<<<<<

 

Gee Steve I don't know about the >> very mysterious <<  part as I'm like an
