Forty five years old - a turning point for blokes?

[OwlHoot]

I'm 35 and petrified I will become a grumpy humourless arse on the stroke of my 45th birthday.

Can some of the olds on here reassure me please? Zippy, Norrahe, mudskipper, Brillo, say it ain't so.

It normally starts when you're about 36

I'm 84 in January. But having just signed a new six month contract, I find myself pretty happy overall.

My only problem is the Bobs - they still can't keep up.

Hang on a minute,

Suity might be right

I dived headfirst into contracting at the ripe old age of ........ 45!

Maybe as I was already a miserable old git, contracting was the only way left to turn.

So just how old of an old **** are you

[Cliphead]

I just turned 52 and no different from when I was 22 and no, I'm not a miserable auld git.

What midlife crisis? I can afford all the musical instruments I've lusted after for years, any other indulgences that take my fancy since I can afford them now (think expensive hobbies). So why would I 'turn weird'?

Ah wait, no wife, no kids. Does that have a bearing on things? Life doesn't get much better than this.

Never you mind sonny!

Gah, kids these days. No respect.
