Who are our youngest or oldest members?

Sometimes a comment or memory will make me think that a member is older or indeed younger than I might have expected.
A recent reference to school trips in the 1930's had me trying to work out the maths. smile
How would you feel about revealing your age? I am prepared to be impressed, especially as so many members seem to be so active and involved in many things.

I have just gone 54. I had my son at 18 and became a grandma for the first time aged 44. I made my mum a grandma aged just 38 ! Yikes.

68 on the outside. I think and feel as I have always done. So ageless on the inside.

Well you're leading the field for our youngest member, Antjexix wink

I'm 65. Had my first child at 22, but didn't become a grandmother until I was nearly 56. I wish it had been earlier so that I could have enjoyed all my grandchildren while I was in better health, but that's not something we have control over!

I'm 64. First became a Granny at 55. Didn't marry until I was 30.

I was also married at 20 first child 21 and first grandchild at 38 so lucky to have had most of my grands when I was young and energetic.

I am 71. I was married at 20 and my youngest child was 45 yesterday. I had to wait until 2006 for a grandchild.Still it was worth it.
