The Big FIVE OHH

Well, for those of you who are my 'friends/buddies' on here, I suppose that you've had a 'ticker alert' that it's my birthday next week....but it's not just any bleedin b'day, it's the big 5 zero!
I don't know what to make of it ...part of me thinks WOOO 50, so WHAT ?!?! The other part of me thinks...... what the Hell happened to that girl?!? Of course I've had the usual flattery: "Bleedin' Hell, you're 50, can't believe it, you don't look anywhere near that etc. etc."
In the meantime, I need to find a new purple dress, as in the poem. "When I'm old.....:....Haven't found the 'frock' yet, but what I do know is when I find it I'm going to wear it with green shoes

Being 50 is rather easy. One ages disgracefully.

I can't imagine being 50 either. That's just plain old. *checks calendar*. Well, see you in 2 years when I'll be posting a '50 is incredibly young after all' thread

Forty is the old age of youth, fifty is the youth of old age.

I wish I'd written that

Happy next week birthday Supes ........I'm away next week........xx

You can't wear black now that you've said purple..

And besides, I got you a High Street bargain so you can ruin it celebrating without worrying about anything.

If you can't be a good example, be a terrible warning (works for me).

50 is the new 30,only difference is you can get away with purple dress with green shoes,people just think you are a bit eccentric, early 30and 50 where the best years ever,at 50 you are old enough to do anything, and old enough to get away with it, have fun.

NOT THAT BLIDDY SHADE OF GREEN

I have a worn once shoe and bag combo that is a definite possibility, errrm I'll ditch the bag....tooo matchy, despite the bloody thing costing £180 and it'll never again see the light of day!.....
I WANT PURPLE....but I'll probably end up with black!!!

Wimbledon Tennis Club's colours are green and purple.

Purple and green can be very effective.

You should wear purple and green at 50. It's the law.
Happy Birthday

Ach it's nothing,I'm 54 .I still feel the same as I did at twenty one...sigh.Well in my head anyway.However I do now notice when I squat down on my hunkers(gardening etc) I take a bit longer to rise etc.Weight may be against me.I'm a few stone heavier now then I was at twenty one....I believe it's called "aging!

Hitting 30 was a bit more lip trembling...that was the end of your twenties...That to me was the end of "Youth".

i think I've had an 'old head on my shoulders' since I was about 21..... but it was a much prettier head in those days! Actually, don't get me wrong, I don't care much, it's just a no. and all of that, but a bit of me thinks, me 50, how the Hell did that happen?!?

I'm fairly certain some days didn't count when we were younger.

Indeed! Although I didn't have responsibility when I was that young! (not wishing to hijack the thread though)

Har har super..I've been
told by more than a few folk I don' t look my age..luck more than anything.I could pass for ten years younger.However,,as long as you have good health etc ..who cares.I'm waiting on biopsy results for throat tests.,I was knocked out for a good old camera root around and a sample taken.I've had swallowing annoying feelings, something there tickly throat for months.The surgeon stated to me last week..you have a "Fold" of flesh in the wall of your throat,it looks okay to me ,but it's rather inflamed...so I'm waiting.
