There have been a few references of late about people being old, I will be 61 next month and I don,t feel old, what do other members class as old age, 40,50,60,70,80,?

Hi Hattikins

My daughters are always telling me I'm old

To me the alternative to growing old is dying young, no contest.

Carol, I know it's an old adage but you really are as old as you feel. However to answer your question I think 75 is old. Apologies to any 75 year old's

Well men normally say

"Your only as old as the woman you feel"

Mine is the other way round

" I am only as young as thae man I feel"

Yummy !!!!!

No1Doyen - Mr Wick isn't old, being only 30 21. I, on the other hand will be 30 28 next week, so I could be old - I certainly feel it when I look in the mirror first thing in the morning (from necessity, not choice, I might add!).

No1Doyen - glad you thought so! I see you and I are the same age - what are people's thoughts on age being just a state of mind? I'd like to think so, I don't feel any different now to how I felt 30 years ago, but, as I said, the mirror first thing in the morning tells me otherwise!!

Im 50 this year but still act and feel as if I am 25 so on that principal I should be old when Im 100



Its funny though when people get to 65 they seem to take on a completely different view on life and seem to enter the "pensioner" mode but dont worry Carol a few more years yet ?

Sorry Doyen



It's 54 my actual age converted into binary, octal or hexadecimal... all different mathematical/computing numbering systems... boring but correct.

Oi Turtle, you young whippersnapper, I hope it will be many years before I move in to pensioner mode, I have far too much to do yet.

In the Grapevine I once overheard a conversation between 2 teenagers about a guy who was, in their words, REALLY OLD, you know at least 40!

Old is always 10 years older than you are now. Personally, I decided to stop ageing at 27 - never got any older - don't know how I did it.
