I prefer to keep people guessing about my age.

My Father had funny ways to count ages on birthdays.
-
You could do the numbers flip, once you’ve reached a two denominational age. If you wanted to feel a kid again, example you’re 21 today. Flip it and you’re 12 again. So, if you’re 60 today then you’re 6 again (as the zero’s just dropped)
-
You could add up the numbers until you get one digit. So, if you’re 63 years old, it goes like this: 6+3=9. Which means that you’re technically just 9 years old.
Papa, sadly, passed away 49 years ago at just 57. At his last birthday, making his wish and blowing the candles, he proclaimed: “I’m 3 again!”
5+7=12 then 1+2=3…
He died a month and two days on Valentine’s Day. In 2017, on the 12 January, he would have reached the grand age of 100.
So turning this into a FUN AGE FACT, add or flip your age… And if you dare, post it here!
I’m 9 in case curiosity gets you 
I’m 9 also but, being 63 is more fun.

I now have her back home where she belongs and now life can slowly return to normal, or perhaps that should be a new normal as she has life changing deep seated osteoporosis which means she will be limited with what she does and how she goes about things in this household. Things can only get better as time passes👍

Dunn did “Grandad” in 1971, and died 42 years later, what’s that about?

He had great vision, forward looking!
Do you still have your copy on vinyl?

Didn’t own a copy, that would have been a real credibility destroyer in the Glam Rock era!

Oh yes! 
He spent that time in Algarve: clean air, clean food, clean everything.

He was only 51 when he recorded ‘Grandad’ (Wikipedia). He had a Grandad type face from an early age.
