My sister was a 1947 baby and I thought that courting someone that young was cradle-snatching. My first wife, as it turned out, was also a 1947 baby, as was a much loved, subsequent, partner. Sigh!

So it must have been a good year.

To be born in Hamburg/Germany on June 8, 1943 wasn't a lucky date of birth because of known events 5 to 6 weeks later. But me and my parents in bombed Hamburg-Hamm survived and I'm still going strong.

Congratulations to all 'Catters born in 1947 inclusive my dear wife!

I will also turn 60 this year but I still feel like an 18-year old. Unfortunately, my wife won't let me have one!

I also will be sixty this year. Born on the Queen's 21st Birthday I was (hence the middle name ELIZABETH).

Thinking about the "you are as old as you feel" bit. Myself and three similar aged female friends went on a "Girls Night Out" - That's what it was called and it was just that. It was at the Theatre with several hunky young men cavorting around the stage in various states of undress and doing quite provocative, sensual things, think they were singing a bit too. It wasn't pornographic or anything, just a good laugh and quiet enjoyable, as I recall. They certainly got lots of wolf whistles and signs (sighs!!) of approval from the audience.

Upon leaving the Theatre - one of the 'GIRLS' in our group pointed out two women and said "Look at those two - you wouldn't think they would come to anything like this would you?" I pointed out that perhaps they too were thinking exactly the same when they looked at us three.

Some people you cannot imagine ever being young can you - i.e. Prince Charles - he always seems to have been middle aged - don't you think? Could think of several others, but perhaps not right now.
Need to slip into my slippers and get my Ovaltine. Good night.

Half an hour after I was born, the Second World War ended. Maybe I should be called "Peace" instead of "rags"?

You're not alone in that - why should we feel different. I was once told that adults are just children with responsibilities!

There was some mention of casting me adrift on the outgoing tide in a burning wherry.
