Don't you go feeling old Eliza - because you aren't!!

Even young people can get health problems that drag them down.

I can still do everything I used to, except put my feet behind my head, its just that things take a little longer and I make more groaning/creaking noises when getting up or down than I used to...

Yep that's about right. When one is young you don't have the cash to do or buy the things you want.
So when you have the cash, you are too old to do the things you want.
Now do I want or need that radio controlled buggy? It's only £165 and I could put that spare FPV 5.8 kit I have in it.

Someone told a friend he looked good for 74, he said he might look good on the outside but the inside tells a different story.

Re: When is old .....old

It seems to be obligatory for young people to moan about just about everything, some saaaay, they are old before their time. My neighbours are anyway, therefore I will stay young at heart if only this flesh wasn't so weak!

I am in my 3/4 70s. Every one guesses that I am much younger. I try not to act old, but when the back gives way I have to realise my age. I can still ride some of my bikes, but the other day I found it difficult to get my leg over the x bar of one. Well I put it down to my back ache at the time.
Yes, you look so much younger than your age

Re: When is old .....old

Hi Patsy

Remember my Mum when she was in her 80's saying she didn't want to live until she was old, so I asked her what age she would like to be when she went then, and she couldn't answer that. Eventually she lived to 92

Aah - I hope she didn't mind it too much
