Would it be considered rude of me to ask how old we are? I’m surprised for example to read if a poster is a great grandmother or is ‘going out to work now’.

I’m 65y.

I'm 72 and have decided to stop colouring my hair, and let the "grey" shine through! My younger sibling (by 14 years) has been "grey" for some time!

I am 78 and holding on to any feelings of youthfulness by my fingertips.

Purplepoppies Mon 11-Nov-19 17:04:46

I'm 47. My body feels older and most days my brain doesn't work too well either.....
I'm mildly physically disabled and that black dog is a bastard ?......

I'm 78. I worked until I was 68 and then did some voluntary work for WRVS until I was 74. Now my 2 Westie keep me active not to mention 4 grandchildren.

Body 80 Head 20 something. Maybe it's time to grow old disgracefully.

Paperbackwriter Mon 11-Nov-19 16:41:27

aonk Mon 11-Nov-19 16:31:11

I’m 68 so definitely won’t be reversing the figures!

GreenGran78 Mon 11-Nov-19 16:28:36

Oops! What happened to my flowers?

GreenGran78 Mon 11-Nov-19 16:27:51

There are a few on here who are older than me. I was 80 last July. However, I found out today that I am the next-to-oldest member at my gym. I'm very grateful to be fit and healthy, at my age, and not on any medication.
It's sad to read that so many Gransnet members, especially the younger ones, have health and/or mobility problems. Some flowers for you all [flowers ]I certainly count my blessings.
