When are you old?

Best thing about being old(er) and retired is that we can do what we want, when we want, at the speed we want

There is certainly a lot more flexibility when you are 'retired' from full time work.

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

Good to know that I have to wait 15 years before I am officially old. Trouble is why do I feel some days that I am 85 years old

I saw a post yesterday calling us Seenagers, i.e. senior teenagers because we can do all the things we either couldn't afford or weren't allowed to do the first time around as teenagers. 

I'm certainly not old, and the thought that I could be described as a 'OAP' in the press horrifies me!  (Even though I am).

Our grandchildren don't think we're old - we asked them yesterday - and they told us we were just 'A big boy and a big girl'!!

It's just a number,we will be still going down the water slides in Majorca and Feurtaventura in April and August and we are both 74. My younger siblings would not allow us to have an old persons outlook on life.    

I felt old when I joined the Caravan Club.

You are getting old when you are cautioned by your Doctor to slow down, rather than the Police.

Well I went to the doctor's recently & he said my body was unique!  Well what he actually said was "I've never seen anything like it". 

I am not old.

But I have been young for a very long time.

I don't think of myself as old but I am realistic. I was looking at some of the Munros, near where we are going in Scotland, and wondering if they were a step to far. I suppose I could try for half way.
