Default How old are you ?

A nice easy Friday question. Prompted by one of MontrealMike's recent post. It would be interesting to know the demographics of this forum. A 20 year's old take on the world is quite different than a 70 year old's, and vice versa.

my chronological age is 66 - my biological age (according to my doctor after my last physical) is about 10 years younger. I plan to live healthy to 100

From the eye brows up, I'm half my chronological age

Last time you said "from the eyebrows up I'm 21"...remember? Must be getting old, not2old! I hope you're going to tick your chronological age on the poll!!

true - today I'm having an off day - full of a cold, coughing & spluttering & a bit depressed... my head is bursting

Some days I feel really slow & old, other days I'm like a child.

Miss Clinique is an unknown quantity at this point

I am old enough to know better, but young enough to do it again.

Well at 66 you're not even old so I wouldn't worry about it. Get your Dalwhinne out and have a wee dram.

I did consider that, but given the reticence of users on here (170 views, 20 votes) I didn't want to scare anyone else off.

I'm surprised, I thought that there were a few more septuagenarians on here. You da man!

I would think a decade gives enough wiggle room, or they could lie
