At What Age Do You Start Feeling 'Old'? And Does that Feeling Affect Who You Are?

Having got old (81), quite unfit and now looking back, I can say it was about 78 for me. It was quite sudden and unexpected.

It’s about doing what you can do and thinking twice about doing what you shouldn’t!
I have this hankering from time to time to take up Karate again. I’m no longer fourteen

People, young and not so young are generally courteous here in London. I don’t really know about other parts of the country.

I live in London and rarely get offered a seat on bus or underground .
When I do it is invariably from a tourist or obviously non British person.

Most people around here are tourists or obviously non British. The rest feel sorry for a sad old git.

You would always be offered a seat up here in Yorkshire Helen, and it would be mine if I was on the same bus…
Perhaps I need to re-phrase that…
