I may have posted this before, but ....

You're young when you think "When will I .... for the first time?"

You're middle aged when you think "When will I next ....?"

You're old when you think "Is this the last time I will ....?"
The fact that you can't remember posting this before Dave,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, !
 
You should never ask a lady her age, and just as well as today I am identifying as a Tortoise but I am so old I forgot to mark the date on the inside of my shell.
But fear not for tomorrow I will be identifying as a seagull and can fly away from such questions...
 
At sixty three I'm right in the middle of our demographic, I could be biased but we grew up in a golden age of modelling where Airfix Revell etc etc produced dozens of new kits every year at a time when the art of injection molding was maturing nicely, magazines became a thing that expanded our knowledge of the hobby in a way that forums such as this does today! Practically every kid built kits at leat a few times!

Fair to say we are in a second golden era today, there's little that isn't available, and if it isn't it can be 3D printed! More manufacturers today with wider catalogues in kits accessories tools paints internet forums and social media channels dedicated to this brilliant hobby than ever before!
