40 seems SUCH a long time ago.

The trick is that once you pas the big 40, you just start counting backwards.

That makes me 28!

Over the age of 40 you have a legit reason for a mid-life crisis and lots of toys - i've not looked back ...

Spring chickens, all of you!
This subject was done (well and truely?) just a little while ago!
Me? 370 bhp, heating allowance and a Freedom pass! At the end of the month that lovely Mr Brown will be putting a regular few quid into my bank account! Unfortunately, I seem to have been beaten by Scoobychicks Pa - Good man!
As keen as ever!
I reckon all us old gits should meet up at one of the shows and sit in camping chairs with tartan blankets over our knees, talking about the "old times"
