Not sure marriage is an out of date trend.

Not staying married is though.

Sooner or later you would think peeps would catch on.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

A third of my friends are married, a third of me and my sisters are married.

So I'd say more like a third.

I don't think so, only about four have never married. That said only two are still married and the rest of us would marry again.

oops read that wrong - I meant 70/80% are married.

Find it difficult to believe half of women have never married by age 50 - what's that from?

From the ONS:

The proportion of men and women who have ever married has been declining over recent decades. Of those born in 1930, 90% of men and 94% of women had ever married by age 40. In contrast, of those born in 1970, 63% of men and 71% of women had ever married by the same age.

---

So those aged 50 would be born in the 60s - so don't understand what the QI stat would have been based on?
