No, you're not old yet. Old is officially two years older than whatever age I'm at. So, at the moment old is over 70. Next year it will go up to 71.

Reminds me of a conversation with three working grandchildren pontificating on how they were paying for State Pensioners through their taxes.

Their jaws dropped when we discussed further and I pointed out that as an SP I still pay more tax than the three of them combined.

Moral victory to me.

You are a mere child ........79 is facing me.

Err, excuse me. I have to raise an objection.......
especially as I'm 71 😀 How about 85? I think we're all younger than that 🤔🤔
