When are you old?

You're old when you've passed it

When your body tells you , and the wrinkles need ironing 

like us all I feel 25 in the head , but body and wrinkles tell me a lot different 

You're old when you've passed it

Passed what???  

Our local surgery considers 85 as the age when they consider someone old.

Thats goog i have 2 or 3 years to go yet then.

Somebody called me an OAP recently and I asked them not to as it made me sound 'old' and I don't feel old or like an OAP.

To me, 80 years is old.  

I think it all depends on the person, my Dad died at 66. My brother is now 66 but nothing like my Dad was. My children now in their 40's say that we in our 60's are not old, but agree Grandad was old. My OH is 65 this year fit and healthy, couldn't imagine my Dad at that age driving a car/caravan or motorhome all the way to the tip of Spain. We are still youngsters compared to some we meet on our travels, the oldest I think we have met was in his early 90's and still towing a caravan to France every year. 

You are as old as you feel

You would never get old if mirrors didn't exist. 

True Tammygirl and I think the generation my grandparents came from always appeared old to us.

We have a friend who, I think, was born 'old'. Even in his 30s he had all the 'grandad' traits; his manner, his looks, and particularly his dress sense. 

Whe the candles cost more that the cake and your doctor is telling you too slow down and not the police.
