    Your age?

    Out of interest, what is your age?

    I'm 55 and joined the forum when I was 46.

    I can definitely feel a difference in my body in those 9 years!

    That depends of whether you want it in Celsius or Fahrenheit.

    Age? - It depends... on how long I take to answer.
    CC, Image editing OK.

    Well, I joined when I was younger than I am now. For some reason my feet feel older than the rest of me apart from my back, shoulders and hands. My brain however still thinks like a 21 yr old.
    Hope that is a satisfactory answer.

    I am almost 52. I was 41 when I joined AP, in its early days, and took over the site later the same year. And I agree Jim, certainly can tell the difference in the last 10 years, up till the 40's everything was basically the same. But now I have a few creaks, aches etc.

    Great question, Jim -

    Just so happens, my birthday re-occurs once again at the end of this month. If you're planning anything, a new lens would be nice

    Cheers - ←2nd choice...

    I'd have to differentiate between mental age and physical age ...... the first doesn't change a lot, but the second one operates in an accelerated time-frame!

    I'm 56 and generally feel much the same as I did 20 years ago. Though I did a bit of painting early last year and was astonished to find that I'd done my rotator cuff, and couldn't raise my arm without fairly serious pain. That wouldn't have happened 20 years ago.

    Jim, I've just done a day in over waist deep water repairing our jetty and moorings. I knew I would be a bit sore, but thought I was going ok until I sat down for a coffee, it was hard to get back up!

    I think I might be feeling 20 years older in the morning

    I’m in the last stages of 38. My birthday isn’t too far off, so in about a month and half I’ll be 37.

    That’s how it works, isn’t it?

    To quote from an old movie (either Remo Williams, or Karate Kid... can't remember which...)

    To a mountain, I am hardly just begun
    But for a man, I am just right
