Ohh Len you made me chuckle then and you CB where is a waist;;; where is feet, ;;;;;;;;;;oh I see them down there at least when Im sitting;;;;;;;; Babs who is 55 this year, feels 75 and thinks like a 20 year old

I know you never claimed that Daniel, but I meant 'you' generally as people usually do tell you they are the best years of your life. (or 'they' did to me when I was a teenager) Claire xx

I'm back......Done my morning chores, run husbands bath, cook his breakfast, feed the cats, change the litter tray, feed the birds and put the rubbish out, and second load in the washing machine........Silly old bat that I am ,,,,,,,big sixty this year..........

Never mind, Dan. Don't be too despondent. London beckons on Saturday! Who knows what delights are in store to brighten your gloom? ;>))) CB >|<

You're only as old as the man you're feeling.... *feels 38*

I never claimed that teenage years are the best years. If, they are, just wheel me in front Trisha now and let me go sooner than later :-)

Len, you are most certainly not old! My gran will be 90 in 5 years and she says age is a state of mind. She still feels 18 inside. :o) Dan, as a mere youngster in my 30's, I have no problem with a 'few years under my belt'. You think you have the best years of your life as a teenager/student, but every year is a best year in some way, isn't it? I am currently loving being a YOUNG mum! Claire xx

Come on you lot, dont worry about a few pounds weight gain. Its the person that is important not the size etc. I was still wearing size 10 clothes when I was 63 but unfortuneately, I had to go on steroids, which increased my weight. At first I got depressed, then I gave myself a good talking to, my friends were still my friends, with or without the weight. Inside, I dont feel any different to when I was in my twenties, I have to keep pulling myself up and remind my self I cant wear these lovely fashions the youngsters wear. So just get out there and enjoy yourself. June xx

The problem with a 'few years under your belt' Daniel is that one gets fat. Other than that no problem at all. (Snap Camberwell - you're up early!)

LOL Felicity! Cheeky little b***er! ;o)))

I'm not getting older, I'm getting better, or at least my doctor and husband encourage me to hold to that philosophy. However, it was difficult to think in those terms 20 years ago when my small son asked me if I'd ever seen a dinosaur, and the following week asked me if I was in the crowd at Queen Victoria's funeral as he watched the camera footage on TV!

Daniel at 50+ still think I'm as young as I feel. Just takes a bottle of dye, pair of jeans and my Dr Martens then no one can tell my real age. PMSL

I know that I am old as, when I bend down to pick something up, I always ponder 'what else can I do whilst I am down here?' len

Daniel, We don,t complain about GETTING old - what we do moan about is being old. best wishes Happy days

Gwen - or my mam going by my parents ages, lol

I shall be 90 in just under 8 years but when I read some of the threads on this board, I feel hale and hearty compared to many, particularly mentally. Len

Lunar that makes me your GRAN

the only problem I find that being in my late 40's its harder to pull as all the nice women I like are married,to young or live too far away. There thats my 40+ moan

Gwen, that would make your girl just old enough to be my mam! And I mean just, I'm only 22 (and 2/3) although my mam is 49 and dad is 56.

Dawnie wouldnt it be nice if we were,
