People’s age on forums?

I have no idea how old people are, though obviously on here over 50 at least.
I always thought I was the oldest, but I don’t think I am now.

No, I’m not good at guessing forum members’ physical age - some seem more “young at heart” than others but I realise that does not necessarily reflect their actual age.

What I find scary and very ageing is that my eldest son is now old enough to join an Over 50s Forum, if he wanted to - but I don’t think he’s ready for that just yet! :rofl:

I know people’s age on this forum because there was a fairly recent poll.

As to my age, when I was 32, I felt like I was 90 and told everyone about it. When I was 35, I felt like I was 18 and told no one about it. I was too busy out having fun.

That’s all arranged and one of our two nurses we house has this in hand. She has already stipulated … no cheese, no eggs and definitely no mashed potatoes, as the hospital food is based on all three :wink:

My Father had funny ways to count ages on birthdays.

  1. 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)

  2. 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 :rofl::rofl::rofl:
