4 more days and past the 50 mark. With a few bike wrecks, the Army, and picking up too many transmissions and installing them by hand, I sometimes feel like a 100. Overall though, Im ok and don't worry too much. Knees hurt the most but still love to ride motorcycles. Gotta get some fishing gear to take up more of my time instead of living on my computer. The misses swears I love it more than her. :o

I know about the computer thing Kringle, my missus says computer is Mia Noi.

As for age, I only just qualify for the Old Farts Chat Show. :o

Never confuse immaturity for youth. :D

Kris, I used to always say I had three wives.... One Mia Luang, two Mia Noi's named Honda :D

I think, for many, it's more like 'premature'... Like they need to cook a bit more in the oven before they've reached maturity :D

I am in the 40 - 50 bracket, but as they say "You are only as old as the woman you feel"

So that makes me 23.

I don't understand why people say Mia deck and laugh.... :o

my missus says computer is Mia Noi.

My wife says the same thing to me, after getting broadband, so i blame it in TRUE.

By the way, i'm 36. Came to Thailand two years to never have to work again. To the original poster, you'll love it here, mate !!

Wasn't it Oscar Wilde who said I'm not young enough to think I know everything.

Zovox - since you just got TRUE try joining our file share hub for Thailand users. (internet forum)

So long as she hasn't mentioned my name, blonco. :o

I'm 31.

Thanks, pandit - i'll check it out !!

it's all in yer heid...I've seen folks half my age that look like the headmaster that you want to stomp...(54 by the way...)

I'll be 25 in Jan, but feel close to 50 on some mornings (physically, not mentally).

I forget my age. It keeps changing every year. :D I think it was 45 at the last count. :o

30. 31 in March. So i'm still young,

59 here. 60 in January. The only times I really feel any different than at 24 is when I look in the mirror. I try to avoid doing that  :D

I know guys of 50 who are 'old' and I think it is mainly to 'attitude' and worrying about the fact that age is creeping up on them...

I have $30,000 in the bank and maybe another $25,000 in assets, car, jewelry etc. No house, property or business. People ask me what I will do in 5 years when I retire. My answer is, "First I have to live that long, then I will think about it."

The main thing is to not worry about 'anything' and don't give a rats arrse what other people think of you. Live for today, because today is all you got.  :o

I'm 65 and I like the way you look at life, just like I do.

35, but living here since I was 24 I feel like I've aged more then I would have in Europe! (mentally, not physically)

44 and apparently wearing very well.

61.

Will enter LOS on 30 December for my (well prepared) retirement together with my lovely wife. :o

i can understand you do not want to look in the mirror :D

btw ....as i am getting older my girls are getting younger :D

oh did i say i was <50 and look like richard gere :D

29, 30 in April. Love being this age, won't go back to my early 20's if you paid me but not sure what the next few decades will bring and don't want to :o

sorry ,

i forgot what i was

going to say . :o

"No matter how old you ge, if you can keep the desire to be creative, you're keeping the man-child alive." - John Cassavetes

"He not busy being born is busy dying." - Bob Dylan

I'm an old fart. However, I feel a h*ll of a lot younger here in Asia than I ever did in Europe. I even look young and handsome - how can 10,000 Pattaya bar girls all be wrong? :D:D:D

"I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now"

BTW, 56 on NYE. I'll expect everyone here to celebrate with me. :o

As i slowly prepare for the final move to LOS and read the happy words and feelings of the many farangs who have made there homes in Thailand

I can always see hope at the end of the tunnell.

50and a bit but really feel 30 still trying to do the things i did when i was 30. Going back over new year for a month again of total peace and happyness.

Do you know any good fishing places in KK or Udon? - I am thinking of taking it up. On a boat on a river maybe.
