Gwen, you'd have had to be a child to have had Dawn and she woulf have had to be a child to have had Dan! (That would make you under 43 and Dawn under 30 if my sums add up right!)

I wish im 56 and my daughters 37 and son 33,,,,oh b*****

Lunar I'm liking you more and more. lol

Dawnie wouldnt it be nice if we were,

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.

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

Lunar that makes me your GRAN

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

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

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

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 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'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!

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

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!)

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

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

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 :-)

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

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