To think someone born in 1968 is not ‘nearly 60’?? RUDE!!

We left school and did our CSEs in 1984 - note no O Levels/A Levels or 6th Form - dear Mumsnetters

We came of age in 1986 - Hand of God - Mexico World Cup etc etc

Harold Wilson was PM when we were born

only CFs would call us ‘nearly’ ‘60’

We are nearly 60! And proud of it! 😅

I mean it’s not rude as you are nearly 60. 57/58 is closer to 60 than 50 .

They aren’t wrong. You left school 40 years ago.

Well I hate to say it but you are 😆 I’m not far behind you though
