This isn't me being nosey, but many of us take part in this forum on a daily basis, and I sort of have a picture of many of you in my head, but i'm rubbish at guessing ages.
Anyway I'll start the ball rolling i'm 61 (62 in Feb).
And please feel free not to join in

49 and my daughter says i'm old lol. She has ASD and doesn't understand numbers.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
Condiments, I'm pretty sure I'm going to be the oldest here, tho I'm as young as 66Mustang in my head. When I was in my 40s I said to my son (about 9 at the time) that I was middle-aged. He said, I couldn't know, & I asked him what he meant. He explained that I would need to know how old I would be when I would die, & then you would halve that, & that's when you would be middle-aged!I'm 67, shhh...don't tell anyone.Tori, how did you become 'Terrible Tori' at only 22? Must admit the alliteration works well (& thinking back to the numbers game. )

26!!!

Your secret is safe with us @chiarieds
I could never tell you how I became so terrible... There's only room for one Terrible Tori on the community.

So far the consensus seems to be that us "older" ones don't feel our age, I must admit that in my head i'm 30 years younger. pity the rest of my body feels 30 years older2024 The year of the general election...the time for change is coming 💡

44, but according to various quizzes on Facebook, based on my profile pic I look about 28.

65, but wishing I was 32 again when I was super fit and felt as though I could achieve anything

In contrast to the older members feeling younger I have to say I have always been older than I am
Most of my hobbies and interests seem to be shared with older people and a lot of my opinions and behaviours can be likened to those of older people as well. Thinking back, when I was a child I would always sit with the adults on social occasions while all the children played together haha.
I also never got to do all the crazy things that most young people get to do, but not sure I’d want to do some of them to be honest, maybe when I’m older I’ll have a mid life crisis and go to university and travel the world and do other stuff that young people do -
My drivers licence suggests that I'm 28, though my body suggests 48!
I'll continue to say 'mid 20's' until my 30th birthday though... -

62 until Monday! I was a Christmas baby. I do feel a lot younger though, working with a lot of young people keeps me young that's just one of the reasons I want to carry on working past retirement age.
