People are living a lot longer, 60 used to be old. My dad is 70 this year, and I still don't think he seems old, as my job involves seeing lots of people in their 80s & 90s, a lot of whom are still quite active.


As a result of all this, the whole middle age thing is a bit confusing. I'm about the same age as you, and I don't think I'd call myself "young" anymore, but I certainly don't see myself as middle aged, as I don't think that really kicks in til you're about 50.

When do you think middle age begins? sooner than you think, and it ends during mid to late fifties,

after that when you hit the 60's you are old and achey and travel is a burden, and sleeping in your own bed at night becomes important.

You cannot stray more than 250 yards from a flush toilet and everyone you ever knew has moved away or died.

Do not worry most of you will not see it as the big blue flash will remove all hardships.

By mid sixties one becomes depressed at the miserable outlook of the inevitable future, as what future you once had is positively behind you.

I prefer to think that it will come the day I stop skateboarding regardless of which county I live in.


But who knows. It?s all fields around there anyway. No concrete in sight.

    • It's unprofessional, and possibly illegal.  There are procedures to complain.
    • Occasionally when this happens, the estate agent is complicit. Had this happen to our neighbour and we later found that the house was bought by the sister of the estate agent at the reduced price. The agent is in an advantageous position as he/she is aware of the seller's circumstances and occasionally one will go rogue to do a favour for a relative/friend.
    • Hello, I have a new boxed (unwanted gift) Tefal Secure 5 that you could have.  The model is P2500731 and is a few years old, just been sitting in a cupboard, but it hasn’t even been unpacked.  I think a new version is about £70 so you can have it for £25?  If interested, please let me know and I can drop off to you if you like as we are on Brixton Hill but pass through ED most days.  Best wishes, Alison  
    • If you have any please let me know thanks Angelina
