Guess my age?

I really enjoyed the thread started by @openthefrontdoorthe other week which was a different take on those boring threads where someone posted a photo.

So I thought I’d start one myself. Not sure I’ll be quite as eloquent but I’ll give it my best shot to drop some random facts

  1. Growing up, my dad was clean shaven but for a most fantastic bushy moustache which he took great pride in.

  2. Our 1 tv in the house through most of my early years was rented from Radio Rentals and had a wire on the tv remote connecting it.

  3. My most treasured Christmas present ever was a Tiny Tears doll that could cry and wet herself

Do you remember the power cuts? Do you remember decimalisation classes at school

Answer these to give us clues. I think you are similar age to me Grin

Jewelanemone · 28/06/2026 08:38

60 this year, like me 😊. I loved my Tiny Tears!

Waitingfordoggo · 28/06/2026 08:39

About the same age as me I reckon- 48.

Blondiebeachbabe · 28/06/2026 08:39

This mirrored my memories. My Tiny Tears was called Pauline 😂So, I'd say you are my age - 56.

Meredusoleil · 28/06/2026 08:39

Around 60.

The wide range of age guesses here is interesting - I was born in the early 80s and these memories all apply to me too.

Our radio rentals tv didn’t have a remote, so on the basis of that you are probably a bit younger than me, about 60?
