Bloke from the council came round before. Said they've been reports of anti social behaviour in the block I've been offered so will probably turn it down. At least my upstairs neighbours are being quiet at night for the moment.

Yeah, it is worth waiting longer in the bidding queue/list for something suitable rather than taking something awful more quickly.

I can't be the only person who struggles when asked to confirm their age

I mean I know I'm in the 50s region and I know what year I was born but when I'm out in the spot I've not got time to do the maths

I just don't think your age matters after a while

Couldn't you just work your current age out once and then try to remember that age for the year that you are that age? Instead of doing the maths every time.

It's not something I think about at all

I think it is probably normal to forget your age once in a while at least.

I sometimes think that I am two years younger than I am but then shake my head and bear the reality.

I wish society wasn't so obsessed about ages. It gets scary when the number gets big. And BB wouldn't have to get confused any more if they abolished them. "No citizen shall be denied services as a result of crap numeracy." Yoko Ono said we need to destroy all the clocks and pull soldiers' trousers down so they'd be too embarrassed to fight.
