We went to an art exhibition this morning. The woman showing us round asked if we'd like the notes in large print

We've officially crossed the line into old

It's when they ask if you would like it in brail or an audio tape that you should be concerned

You think you've got a problem.

I went to get up of a carpet where i'd been listening to a talk in a gallery and someone put out their arm and asked me if I needed a hand up ......

I nearly bit myself I snapped so fast.

It's all about outlook. When they cart you both off to the old folks home see it as a new oppertunity for convinent swinger friends to pervert rather than time to hang up your boots.

Maybe that's an idea, a retirement home/community for swingers. At least people would leave with a smile on their face.

OP.

I kind of passed that line 5 years ago..

I'm now 63 but in 2013 I'd a medical issue which periodically affected my balance.

One of those imbalance turns affected me while out shopping & I fell over in the street. Someone called 999 for an ambulance which arrived plus a 1st Responder too.

The crews had a laugh with me in the ambulance as they ran back the 999 call to me; "a really elderly man has fallen over in the street. Could be d*unk (was 100% sober & unresponsive too!! (I'd momentarily knocked myself out!)

Very elderly at 57??!!

Cheeky!

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

Telling a young work colleague I used to have an original portable Mac. The exclamation of "How old are you!?!" Put me off explaining telex.

"That was rude maybe they were jealous of your figures

I don't think she was being rude. She was about 23 we must look ancient to her .

You look good to me from what I can see ?

Because I'm naturally dark I've had it in a few occasions people think I'm foreign (Spanish,Portuguese,Italian etc?) And start speaking slowly as if I'm a baby

Oh dear

We often get younger people ask us if we can use the internet

That's cringe

Funnily when I was shopping in Sainsbury's in St Leonard's I had this woman on the checkout spell each letter out when serving me

We've started to reply "yes, what would you like to know about it?" .

It must be the area

And the Havelock pub

Gotta love the Havelock, or the tiles at least anyway

The one in Hastings always had interesting characters...

Yes I met a very very interesting man in there once.

I love Hastings.

Hastings is a great place. It has its problems but it has some very good points too. "

My old stomping ground, love Hastings myself... I grew up near Battle. Always back in that part of E.Sussex, hope to move back soon

Ha ha.

A cold caller once asked me about the recent accident I'd had. I replied that I hadn't had a recent accident. He must have been having an off day because he said that must be because I'm too old to remember. I laughed out loud and we had quite a chat.

I do appreciate a sense of humour

My approach the last time was to say it wasn't an accident... And that the other driver deserved it because he was driving too slow, so I just pushed him off the road. The silence was fun, then I carried on asking if the assault charge for hitting the other driver would affect the claim..

Click.. buzzzz.

I normally just terminate the call without even speaking but he sounded so fed up, poor thing.

She may have been briefed earlier by HR about making sure everyone is properly cate_ed for as a few suggestions for larger printed info should be made available. It's good to not take offence and see the lighter side. I was asked once if I was over 21 when I bought a kitchen knife. Now when you ask it's not sufficient to say yes even if it's obvious, you need to show ID so as to not offend. Crazy crazy world.

He's older. Simple. What 45 51 or even 60 ultimately got to do with it. I could sense an element of pride and reverse ageism if I was inclined too.

If a younger guy offe_ed me a seat the two things that can happen. I can politely say thanks but I'm ok or accept and give him the opportunity that karma will in turn be good to him too. ( wouldn't cross my mind that he see me as old at all)
