I spent my 40th Birthday out off my head (legally and illegally) generally surrounded by friends who were far younger than me - though the old guard dropped in earlier (pre clubbing) but had to (and I expect wanted to) return to babysitters et. thinking without any sadness "This is the way it's going to be for me"...seven years later I'm married with 3 kid under 5 and happily so...


I'm with John Lennon.

your female intuition is correct Lady Muck. I am indeed a she.

i'm not overly worried about ageing - it is a natural fact of life but I'm interested in how it changes a person and what it means to others to reach this milestone. The mainly male perspective given here has given me some insight into what i expected, in that men generally don't give an arse. But women are usually more susceptible to these kinds of issues but by the time we reach 40 are we still bothered.

It couldn't have been that bad...after all, you can actually remember when blocks of ice-cream contained a pistachio flavour. Whereas I cannot recall what I ate for breakfast this morning...

Aw come on Sue, be positive, that pass thing means we can go wherever we want, when we're not working to pay for mundane things like food.

Actually for me, 40 was better than 30, 50 better than 40 and am finding that as I really have stopped giving a damn, 60 is getting better all the time!

    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
    • Wholeheartedly recommend Aria. He was polite, responsive and sorted our leak, from an old tap on an old plumbing system, with no bother and on same day. 
    • GP not willing to refer you on? Say, to King's or similar. Odd
