A friend who is well over 60 recently acquired a B&Q discount card & used it on a Monday.
Think the day varies from area to area. I have loads of friends who take /send parent's shopping to DIY shops for the discount. They must think that the >60s do an awful lot of house improvements
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
My mother (who hit sixty at the start of this month) has been getting that discount in DIY stores for a good few months now - the reason being that the guys on the till told her one day that "people of your age don't tend to lie about it", so she has lied ever since!!
Having just turned 30 and been informed by my loving child that I'm now really old! I don't feel any different to when I was about 18. (I know a bit more than I did then, but my mother may read this!)
A birthday card from my Dad said something along the lines of 18, with 12 years experience.
As long as I look myself I'm happy. Although it is lovely when patients say I only look about 25. Steve wisely doesn't say anything when I ask if I look my age, just rolls his eyes and changes the subject!
Tried to get a beer in the states when on hols 2 yrs ago, got ID'd all the flamin time. Had to carry my passport everywhere to prove my age, yet my younger sister got served. Not fair (but an ego boost!)
In my head I feel little different from 20 or 30 years ago........................................But in body I have had to slow down a bit, three hours down the lottie is plenty, more than that and I am b******d for the next day!
