Strange, isn't it - my birth certificate also says I'm 40, but I know I'm only about 16... still haven't decided what I want to do with my life and when I'm going to stop worrying what my mum thinks... but where did those children come from, and why do they think I have all the answers.... and why, oh why, is my belly so baggy????? :eek:

Hahahaha what a good post
I would like to know the answers to those questions too, if you find out please let me know...
I am 38 and hubby is 36 really soon (my toyboy)
I agree with the "its not how old you are but how old you fell that counts"
Im not really looking forward to being 40 in a couple of years but hey like said before its just a number on your birth cert...

Now wheres that anti-ageing cream LOL

Take care all

I turned 30 a few weeks after arriving. Never thought it'd be a big deal....but as it approached I realised I was in denial! Think it's cos Mr Logan's my toy boy at 27 :D I love those few months between December (his b'day) and March (mine) when I can say I'm only 2 years older! :D

Hey you guys!

Even Grayling is a youngster by my reckoning :eek:

Next week I retire - at least I have my 410 and by late July we will be starting the rest of our lives in Oz. :cool:
It just dosn't feel like we are that old and I think that is because we are faced with a whole new life with new interests, more new friends and lots of exciting adventures ahead.
So to those of you about to celebrate entering your 40s I can tell you life looks just as rosy 20 years on :D
