I am very puzzled and quite frankly slightly hurt.

Eccles, I for one treasure your references to when horse-drawn carriages delivered milk in a churn to the door, and suchlike. I read your posts as if they were tinted in sepia.

The John Stones posts are a joy to behold!

How are you doing @Eccles Blue?

My elder granddaughter is 2 in a few days and she can already swipe on a phone or iPad, or less the play button to start a Peppa Pig video.

My 2 yr old grandson rang us up using his dads phone when nobody was around. Astonished.

I’m glad I’m a FOC I really don’t want to hang around too long in this messed up cry baby world.. Way too many folk offended at sweet fuck all on behalf of others..

Nothing to do with your plight Eccles, with which I sympathise, just my take on the world we live in today ..

You still can in Possil.

No, prices have rocketed there too. It’s a £5 for a house 4 bedrooms, and a loaf is a shiny new sixpence. Or free if you have an axe.

I trust you had the foresight to make sure the barrel of the tank was nestling between the crack of your arse facing outwards?....

Peppa Pig and it's ilk is one of the many things driving this ageist attitude. Ever watched it?....The way her father is portrayed and treated it's no wonder why people treat older folk like shit.

Funny enough in the airport it was old cunts who were rude and pushing in queues pretending you're not there.

And why do they have their phone ringtone so loud and take ages to answer it haha.

Because if you are to believe much of social media, everyone who is over 50 is a racist, homophobic, brexit voter with all the money, who have had the best of everything, ruined the planet and are now ruining the lives of the young.

Not a very inclusive opinion, but being ageist seems to be outside the realms of ED&I unfortunately.

Welcome to being a FOC.

Pretty accurate tbf.

What do people think the average age is on the forum?

Just been for an X-Ray and am getting about much faster thanks @jimharri.
Can’t praise Hope Hospital staff enough. They are brilliant. (Salford Royal by the way to non-Salfordians!)
