Definitely 40, I never needed facial moisturizer before, and now I am going through buckets of it, and my skins now does that 'crepey' thing the adverts are always going on about...and wrinkles :( Min on "MAWIL" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5701#post-61338 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 14:54:31 +0000 Min 61338@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ I was reading a magazine once that had a section on "middle aged women and.." something I forget*. One of the women was 37. I googled it and apparently you're middle aged at 35. *must be old age fimm on "MAWIL" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5701#post-61329 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 14:24:46 +0000 fimm 61329@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ Was this me? I wouldn't actually describe myself as middle-aged (though I will be 40 next birthday :o( ) it is just a useful acronym which covers the stereotype I wanted to portray.

Robert Uberuce on "MAWIL" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5701#post-61200 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 19:40:43 +0000 Uberuce 61200@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ I was talking about this with my boss today, occasioned by none other than CCE's Greenroofer. Middle aged pros: 1) I was impressed by his shed. Shed love is entirely middle aged. b) I can't abide Radio 1 or 2, preferring Radio 4 and 6. Radio 6 pretends to be cool and alternative, but it's run for and by people who were young and sexy in the 90's. fourth) I've got arthritis. Middle age cons: A) When in B&Q, I still look at the power tools with an eye to zombie apocalypse rather than DIY last) I can eat whatever the hell I like and still not chub out 2) Does an untidy bedroom count?

It's a long and slippery slope on both counts and soon you'll be putting the general public off cycling along with the rest of us.

Oh, and I don't fancy having a MA wife...

Must be the cycling. Comfy isn't it? SRD on "MAWIL" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5701#post-61154 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 16:22:29 +0000 SRD 61154@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ "MAWIL" (from other thread). Love it. Got my first* piece of lycra for my 40th birthday, followed by cycle jersy for Christmas, so I guess that's me too. *if you don't count the handmedown tights for skiing from my Dad when I was 16; i never wore them on the bike anyway.
