Isn't it great not being an old codger?   ;tk;

Youth is wasted on young people

What's that saying? " You're only as old as the man you feel" LOL  ;D

Only old people use sayings...  :D


(Well I can hardly use the thread as an appreciation of the 80's) :D

Yeah it feels great!!

I was born in 1987

When as a child I laughed and wept, time crept

And then when I became a man, time ran

When my life was almost through, time flew

Now at my back I often hear, times winged charriot drawing near



Gather your rosebuds while you may guys, they are not long the days of wine and roses

Well. except for me, I'm knee deep in rosebuds

It's late, Im in that surreal, "It won't make sense in the morning" kinda mood

And I've been at the cough medicine

Is that Alfred Lord Tennison?

The "Winged chariot" line was Andrew Marvel

I don't know about the rest, I may have made it up

Oh, and the rosebuds is by Robert Herrik


Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying:
And this same flower that smiles to-day
To-morrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,
And while ye may, go marry:
For having lost but once your prime,
You may for ever tarry.


I have 100's of bits of poetry floating about in my head, some poetry really moves me

It was just giving me flashbacks to my days of English Literature at school...

Now think of a number between 1 and 10, and I expect a Futurama type answer

Roooooooooboooooooooooooot Hooooooooooooouseeeee!

Red's been ath THOSE mushrooms again!!

Nope, the answer is   56,ish

No fear, the last time I did that, they glued me to a yak!

Surely in following all popular sci-fi, the answer is 42?

You just haven't seen the right episode yet

on that subject, its good to see that Futurama will me making a comeback, I think there are 3 movie length episodes planned

39 in to weeks , i feel a damn sight younger lol

And i happen to be lucky enough to feel a young man most nights ( paul that is lol ) ;D

Now this makes me feel old Poppet, you are the same age as my daughter  ;tk;

Oh well my bus pass will be coming soon  ;tk;

Ang x x

I agree No Flops, not being an old codger is fantastic (for the moment)

Old people should be shot at birth.

LOL I think a few people have daughters/sons the same age as me on here! I don't feel 18 though, I'm not a typical teenage studenty sort of person! Nearly 19 though - wooo I'm getting old ;)

age and cunning will always beat youth and enthusiasm

So thats all i am good for...

Begging for the reply "You're not even good for that"  :D You're lucky Ginger's too nice for that!!!! ;)

you lot are mad, i'm twenty four and i feel proper old.
from eighteen onwards the time just speeds by.
I'd love to be back at school(by this i mean turning up for registration and then going home for the day,
a concept i imagine foriegn to all you academics).

what ever happend to the good old days of oasis ruling the charts, Alan partrige being best comedy program on the box, and Mr pullman running round the school to find out why i was'nt in fourth period maths again!!!!!!

This century SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Sweetheart, I can't say what else you are good for, this is a family forum!  :-*  

I agree entirely.

PS - When does "old" start?
