Average Age Of Forum Members - Page 2 - Britmovie

Jus' click on my name and it should bring up my profile....

As to the age thing, I wouldn't sweat it Just means you can bring a little bit more to the party by having seen these films when they first appeared and on a big screen ; something of which few of us 'whippersnappers' will have had an opportunity.

We're all playing catchup - and if the truth be told, some of us WISH we'd been of an age to see them in the first place.

I KNOW I would have liked to have been of the ORIGINAL Hammer generation !

Respect.

P.S. As for this facelift thing, I bought this bargain kit down the market 'BUTOX'. Just made me even more sore when I ride me bike ! (Must've had the diagram upside down...

Well I was born in 1953 - a good year: The Coronation, Everest was conquered.... and I turned up!

my god - what have I done to start off such a topic? Go away for one day, and you all go completed batty! I've never seen so many crazy answers in my life! and I thought I was mad!!

And yes, I agree with Smudge: respect!

Diane Blackwell · 29-08-2005, 02:52 PM

Hey, you're only 55 - you're not that much older than me - and anyway, you were around in my favourite decade (i.e. the Sixties)! Everything I know about it is retrospective - without wanting to wish my life away, I wish I'd been there! Although perhaps I'm better off seeing it through rose-tinted glasses ...

p.s. Smudge has to be the youngest old codger I've ever come across!!

As Denis Norden once said:"Old age is when you remember first looking at aircraft and you were worried because they had no propellers". Does this apply to anyone?

I'm thirty two, but seriously ill, so not exactly youthful and bouncy. My close friends range in age from seventeen to seventy three; I've never seen age as a big deal. It can create something of a culture gap, but those happen for other reasons anyway, and they make life interesting.

I find it rather disturbing a small number of our members like to cover themselves in oil

My D-O-B is in my profile for all to see, as is my picture in my Avatar (complete with original silver bits !)

I'll start to worry about it all when I stretch in the morning and find wood on both sides !

Sorry but that made me laugh on so many levels, my tiny, fragile dirty mind.

Talking of ages, especially the male, I always liked the recent series Manchild. Nice to see Don Warrington again, I wonder if there is going to be another series. Sometimes it hit a dud note but hey what the heck. Or could it have been taken over by New Tricks?

I share my birthday with a country - how's that for oneupmanship

I'm also one day older that a smasher who has been mentioned in a number of threads - no, it isn't Miss Agutter.

I don't think you're quite ready for that wheelchair, then, Steve!

Well maybe not the wheelchair although I've got the beard.
However, after Sunday's Powell Centenary Walk in the Canterbury area a wheelchair would be most welcome right now. Despite a good soak in a Radox bath when I got home I only found a couple of bones or muscles that didn't ache when I woke up.

Do you find it disturbing that they like to cover themselves in oil or that only a small number like to do so?
