Grandpa contractors?

Late thirties and don't look a day over 50.

Ditto!

Clinging onto my 30s by my fingernails !

I know quite a few real oldie contractors who rely on having hazy CVs with no age and no pre 90s experience on there and then shock the clients with their decrepit appearance on arrival. BUT in Tony and Gordon's reduced red tape fairer non ageist Britain they are now having to produce ID before you can even get an interview ( or not ! ).

Mmmmm....old men....lovely

Being in my 20s, my buttocks are still firm and rosy, and I'm a favourite with middle-aged women.

I can remember the King dying, that's George VI, not Elvis!

Just the 45. Mind you after 22 years contracting I'm going permie (and not even at tescos )

[milanbenes]

if I'm still contracting in .Net when I'm in my early forties I will be a very happy bunny

A pity I cannot prove it anymore. Had you taken the chance last year. :-)

You poor sod. I guess it's the old story - need to drill a hole in a piece of wood, no bench handy, so just pop the wood on your lap and start drilling... Happens all the time.

I thought in computer terms 25 and you were past it. So I retired at this age.

Then 25 and 1 day realized that I did not have enough money for the week.

Now I'm the fine old age of 34 and still working..

Anyone got any good stories about what it was like during the Crimean War?

Failing that, what was it like during the Falklands conflict???
