George,
You forgot the 34 bananas he would have eaten on the leap days he lived through.
Mind you, being on banana solids from day one is no small feat either!

I was a precocious baby, Tommo.  But George's figure is correct. I take leap days off. |

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

Oh but I included the leap days and estimated quite independently that t-i-n was the type to be chomping healthily on mashed bananas by about 34 days, small feet or no. |

I have just put my trousers in the freezer. That'll be those "cold pants" that used to be in fashion in the 70s, then. |

Well, well, well. Another new and fascinating experience to enrich the quality of my life. I have just put my trousers in the freezer. That statement only looks marginally more ridiculous than I felt actually doing it ! And A "sucked her's on the way home"....... <yikes>  Tommo |

Weighing in at the mid-point between t_i_n's and Mary's ages (47), can I just confirm that, as you get older: a) time speeds up b) yes, it's true folks, you always feel like an 18-year-old in the body of a xx-year-old c) your sense of humour remains juvenile, although your opportunities to express it without severe loss of face increasingly diminish d) anger starts to become less intense, but FAR more important Others may disagree! (Oh, and diplomacy becomes something like second nature.) |

(Oh, and diplomacy becomes something like second nature.) Oh so very true, Mart There`s only one thing that you have overlooked - the increasing ability(?) to forget 2 out of the 3 things that you are supposed to remember. Which is probably why I can`t remember what it was actually like to be in an 18 year old body. ... Ah hell, I`ll just make it up as I go along |
