I read the above, and quite frankly I feel very humbled.

I suppose I am in an unusual position in that I grew up in the 50s and 60s, yet have managed to keep up with technology to an extent that I am comfortable with it [most of the time] and am in a position to use that technology to impart my thoughts.

I have no objection to be referred to as an ‘elder’. While my chronological age is ticking away, mentally I’m stuck in a time-warp and am still in my thirties.

Thank you, Robert. That is the nicest comment I have yet received.

I feel a blog post coming up…!

There are still plenty of us about who respect our elders (hopefully that won’t be seen as an insult!), and like to learn and listen to how things have changed over the years and maybe even take heed and learn. We might then apply what we may have learned from you to our own situations in this day and age. And of course compare and contrast in our comments.

Long may it continue.

I’d forgotten about that. Maybe I should have held an opinion poll?

K8 – Fair play to her! Another convert!!

Sixty – You didn’t. It was a voluntary thing. Actually, the only meme that really p*ss*s me off is the “Eight Things You Don’t Know About Me” one. And that’s because I have run out of interesting things to say.

The one with your likeness compared to Mischa Barton was hilarious.

And I thing the idea of a period of transition is even better!

I may never leave home again.
