[Laurang63]

Hi, I'm 41whispers quietly and have 3 kids, dd18 ds16 and an 8 month old. Would love to hear from any other older mothers.

Cor blimey, I hadn't noticed that, thanks almostanangel, I've decided you can stay, we need someone with a young, sharp pair of eyes like you

if it helps i feel old...er and had my dds young so they are..16/14/8

Oh go on let her, she can be our YTS girl and fetch the tea. I may even let you borrow my stripey legwarmers, almostanangel...

No because anyone who fancies Tony Blair is a norty girl

oh ............

you can't cross-fertilise from other threads! (just made that rule up). Leave the YTS alone!

What a great thread. Can I join please, I'm a 62 babe and will be 43 in Aug. DS is 2.8 and I feel like I have aged 10 years since he was born

thanks helsy

so any hints for the yts girlly then?

oh i wear an apron with a pocket in too

Ah, go on, if she's nearly 40 then that has to count for something? Even if only to let her feel young compared with us old codgers?

As soon as you get any grey, dye your hair. And cut it short. Long grey hair - yeuch.
Don't wear t-shirts with slogans on.
How many people d'you think I've offended now?

so do i take off the tigger t shirt imwearing then

Not me, I have no grey, my hair is short anyway, and you don't squeeze boobs the size of mine into slogan t-shirts unless you're very brave

ooh already dye hair!!yes

Almostan angel, you are he only person I have ever met who wants to be 40 and begs to join an over 40s club whilst still in her 30s. Are you sure you are quite sane?

lol nope!! but my mum was 47 when she had me so if she had had me when she was younger i would have been well over 49 now!

that made sence when i thought it..argh

almostanangel ??? What are you on?

Why has no one mentioned David Cassidy, Donny Osmond and the Bay City Rollers??? (remember Shang a Lang?) My mum has a photo of me sitting on my bed with a wall full of David, Donny and Rollers posters (mostly of Les - went off him though after he knocked down that old lady )I twisted my ankle when I was 8 or 9 tripping over my flares with the extra panel of "Rollers" tartan that my I nagged my mum to sew into the hems....God , I never heard the last of that one I missed 3 days of school though..yay! Summer 1976 is seared into my memory cos its the only time I've ever had a decent tan (pesky 50% Scottish blood!!)

Oh, so you have been admitted then, fatchanceofeverbeinganangel!!!

We want no reporting back to the youngies, OK!

I actually remember, going back to the money thing some way down there, being given half a pence and being able to buy some sweets with that at Hendersons newsagents.

Little black-jacks and prawn salad chews. There was also those sherbet things, in a yellow tube and they had a stick of liquorice in, and you dipped the stick in the sherbet. Remember?!

OH my god, Donny!!!!

He was my big thing. Last year he was doing a concert at the NEC in Birmingham. I went and couldn't believe I was reduced to tears.

Firstly I was seeing my idol for real as a 39 year old, after all those years, and also they played the old shots of him when young, behind him and it was surreal that I was there watching him in real life.

The last time I had been an 11 year old or something, sitting on the settee in my folks house.
