Description

Welcome back to the brand new season of 40ish! 

This week Lauren has bought a functional rubber mac and is feeling super smug whilst Nicole is struggling to see as middle age has trashed her eyesight. One woman goes the full Martin Lewis calculating the ‘cost per shag’ now her husband is taking Viagra and wonders if the money could be better spent. And in a tale of midlife bravery gone hilariously wrong, a warrior takes on a rude young shop assistant… only for karma to deliver the ultimate backfire.

Midlife is messy, funny, and, let’s face it, expensive. Come laugh about it with us. Because otherwise you’d cry.
