It's never too old to live life, at least that's what a group of elderly women taught us. The residents of Milton Lodge care home got a surprise visit from a couple of hunks after their managers finally granted their one 'cheeky' wish.
'The butlers in the buff' an all boy group treated the excited women to a dinner and a show when they served them a three-course meal. The news spread fast and it wasn't long before visitors got in on the action in total 23 guests with only 11 from the home.

Speaking on behalf of the lodge, Claire Martin, activities coordinator gave up the name behind this idea. Apparently, 89-year old Joan Corp, nicknamed Man-eater was the ringleader. She said: "Whenever you ask Joan what she wants that day she always says 'a man'."So we weren't surprised when she wanted it to be her wish.
"We had a chat here and everyone was really keen to support it.
"We had a look online and found a company called Hunks in Trunks.
"When they turned up we had to let them know what we wanted them to do.
"They had a three-course meal with a roast dinner. The ladies' daughters and granddaughters came.

"We asked them to do some harmless flirting, it doesn't matter how old you are, so why not?"SWNS
Well, it seems the lads did a good job even 99-year-old Doll Jenkins- the oldest resident in the home, requested a replay for her upcoming 100th birthday. Claire added: "The ladies were really excited, they had all been giggling and they dressed up."SWNS
Gladys Smith, 82, also gave a five-star review.She said: "I had the front seat. It made quite a change and the boys done well.
"It was a good evening."
The party didn't stop at dinner, the lads went practical, offering the women some relaxation therapy. Claire said:
"They all had a massage, the butlers went around asking the ladies if they wanted a massage and they all said yes.
"After it had all finished, Doll told the staff she wanted them back for her 100th birthday, so we are going to have them back.
"They didn't stop laughing the whole night, they absolutely loved it."Everyone had a great day and that's what matters at Milton Lodge retirement home.
