It will work only if you haven't had your birthday this year yet.

 

It works because your birth year in full (instead of the last two digits) plus your age....gives 2011....and if you take away the 1900 you get 111

 

eg. 1973 + 38 = 2011

 

So 73 + 38 = 111

 

But as soon as I've had my birthday and then become 39 ( *sobs* ) it won't work.....cos that's my "2012" birthday.

I have no idea what greeting means in that context. It's obviously before my time. WOOO HOOOO! 

 

 

I live too near the border, it's scottish for crying  and you're still a young ducker....pleased I'm not drinking

Whaddya mean EVEN you!     

 

I'd better stop loitering and go and say hello to Baz in the Darnies. She'll be putting me on the naughty step for staying out too late if I'm not careful  

I only meant that you'd explained it so well that even someone like me (ie rubbish at mathematical things) could understand it.

Oh, oops....I assumed the "either" meant it didn't work before or after.... but now I see what you mean.
