Wrinkly graduate!

Yummy you are just a nipper, congratulations and get yourself there [flowwers]

my typing gets worse by the day

Go the whole sheebang! Contratulations Yummy.

yummy Congratulations you get yourself to that ceremony, you have worked very hard and deserve the whole sheebang as butter said. Last year at my DD graduation there were lots over 50's.

You're certainly not too old, Yummygran! Wear your cap and gown with pride!

You go for it!

Congratulations Yummy. As others have said, you've done all the hard work, you deserve the rewards, whatever your age. What a great role model for your GC too

Congratulations, Yummy. I endorse what everyone else says. Of course you aren't too old. Nobody is too old to reap the rewards of their hard work. Take your family to cheer you on. They should be very proud of you. Cheers!

I just agree with everyone else. I don't think I'm too old for anything, just reached the age when I feel I can do what I like when I like!

Age is just a number....you've worked hard and you deserve to go.

Go get it!

I didn't go to my degree ceremonies in my 20s because I thought I was taking some kind of stand, not sure against what? About 5 years ago I did a course of training through work which led to a degree and I decided to go to this ceremony and make up for the ones I had missed. I had a fabulous day and there were lots of older graduates. I agree wholeheartedly with all the other comments; don't hesitate, go and enjoy it. You will have an unforgettable day!

I agree with everyone who has said you must go - you probably deserve your degree more than some of the 'youngsters'!

Ahh, thank you all for your good wishes......I will go, I'm quite excited......

Good decision, Yummy. Have a wonderful day. Maybe some graduation photos?

Definately, it's not until July so the diet starts now!!!

Glad you have decided to go yummy . I graduated in my forties and would'nt have missed it, great day. Oh and congratulations.

Well done Yummy go and wear your robes with pride! You deserve it!

Congratulations Yummygran ...and yes go to the graduation.

Many congratulations!
yummygran, Ofcourse you are going.

You will have one of the best days of your life.

For goodness sake just go! - you have deserved it. Well done!
My Mum got her degree when she was 60 and I have the pic of her in cap and gown - she was very proud of it and rightly so.

I did my degree through the OU and still feel that is one of my proudest achievements.

Have a wonderful time at your degree ceremony and celebrate your wonderful achievement. Age is immaterial!

Yummygran why not go along and enjoy the day? I got my BSc (Hons) with the OU and was so busy with work and my four children that I just dismissed the ceremony as an inconvenience I could do without. I have four lovely pictures of each of my children at their graduations, and so enjoyed their special days - it would have been quite nice to have my picture up there with them!

I went to a graduation ceremony when I was 48 and again when I was 50. I'd go no matter how old I was.
