A PPRuNer who recently found out my age by devious means (another website and some detective work) said he'd thought I was 20 years younger than I am. Well...I often knock ten years off, but from now on, I might try 20. That being so, I have no intention of telling you all my real age, and if I did, you wouldn't know whether to believe me or not, now I've told you all that I sometimes lie! And like distaff_beancounter, I come from a generation when it was rude to ask a lady her age. But no problem, asking is fine; just don't expect an answer.
Growing old is compulsory; growing up is optional.
