to ask you to ask me how old I am ...

[MmeLindor.]

.. about another 20 times in the next 48 mins so that I can answer, "oh, I am 38 years old"?

Countdown starts now. Another YEAR and 48 mins and I will be 40.

MmeFriedMarsBars has a certain je ne sais quoi about it

Yes, Scotland for 6 mths then Munich.

Maybe I should go for Mme

MmeLeberwurst does not have quite the same jaynaysaykwau (as my mother would say)

Wow NanAstley - the most I'm likely to get from my DH when I turn 40 is Diamond White from Lidl.

I'm snapping at your heels at 37.

40 scares me a little bit, only because I have clear memories of my parents 40th's- I was 16, and pretty sure I had already had hex and been drunk on more than one occasion

@MmeLindor

Woudl I get banned for telling Olivia to fuck off?

I was only speculating ...

No but you would get deleted.....

MmeL - are you really 38 then?

To think you were nowt but a baby when I was just starting secondary school.

Maryz - I had a bit of a look at Gransnet the other day. At what point would you say a migration from MN to GN is appropriate for us olds?

Sod your age I want your dog!! Gorgeous dog you have there.

Why are you leaving Switzerland?

Barf I don't hold much hope of it actually happening, but if I dream hard (and loudly) enough, who knows?

Is there actually any point going back for 6 months?

Seems a tad tedious at your age.

My eldest asked "why do old women wear lipstick?" A bit of probing revealed I was in her category old "old women"

Eeek Maryz - I am 50 this year too! Cannot believe it.

How about MmeLebkuchen for a German nickname?

How old did you say you were, by the way?

MmeLindt you are 10 years and 3 days older than me.

hahahaahhaha

Olivia you are naughty.

Reindeer
Cause DH is getting moved to Munich office.

Tis a faff to move to Scotland for 6 mths but we cannot get the DC into the school in Munich that we want, and am not putting them into German school. BAD year for DD to do that.

I did an undercover operation to Gransnet a couple of weeks ago to steal their cupcake emoticon. They rumbled me and beat me with maxi packs of tena pads and they stuck needles in my eyes

Vicious bunch of wrinklies...believe me

I thought would have got away with it being 48 and all...but my youthful looks blew the whole operation

Sorry, am only teasing. Have bought fab card for DH whose birthday is in a couple of weeks which says "you are not old. You are retro"

@Maryz

dd is 15. She is not having a baby until she is 37. That gives me another 12 years to be young, thank-you very much.

22 years, non?!

I cannot go to Gransnet until Olivia and Justine make GreatGransNet cause my mum posts on GN.

Once she moves to GGN then I can graduate.
