I am constanly referred to as "Young Man", especially in shops (and pubs) and it annoys the hell out of me because I'm 68 years old...I am not bloody young! Are they taking the piss or what? I Sorry, got carried away then. See how annoying it is? Hi ‘Old Chap’

I just don't feel right calling you grandad; possibly because I'm too old to have a granddad. But you're right about developing thick skin. Yesteday happened to be my birthday and I spent it with grandkids...kids..family, inlaws and outlaws. And of course the 'OLD' jokes were coming fast and thick. I realised how thick my skin has become. Keep up the Rambles Old Chap! Hi again.
