Jam,
You could use the search function (if it ever returns) to look for similar posts to yours, but there have been so many over the years that it might be best just to page back through this forum!
I personally believe that age is nowhere near the top in the list of factors that will ultimately decide whether you get to where you want to be, the main ones being your character and will to succeed. (But then as I'm not a recruiter for an airline - I'm only guessing too).
At 31, I'd suggest you're at about the mean for the wannabes involved in this forum. You've got 6 years on me anyway!
Buy Clive Hughes' book, do your PPL and good luck.
PS Any Airline captains who want to chip in with a 'I had a bloke in the RHS yesterday aged 40 and he only started flying at 37' type of anecdote would be more than welcome
