How old are you?

I'm 26, and I don't even know what carded means.I'll take as stab and assume it means being asked for ID (at clubs etc). If I'm right then I haven't been carded since I was 16, unless you include all the times people refused to believe I was only in my 20's. ------------------

Legal drinking and driving in SA is 18 but I was never refused entry into a club and I started going from about 16 (a few times before that staring at 14).I used to quite enjoy looking older than what I am. I don't like it much anymore. People thinking I'm closer to 40 than 30 is a little insulting. Problem is I seem to have my fathers genes for going grey. At 26 I have more than I am comfortable with and by the time I'm 30 I'll more than likely have grey temples. Guess I can forget about anyone every judging my age properly.At least men look more distinguished as they get older...if I was a woman I would be having a nervious break-down. ------------------

Dying my hair has never appealed to me. Call me strange but I just would never feel comfortable hiding my grey like that. LOL.I'm afraid that I will have to be contented with taking a chainsaw to my car to make it look like a sports model and renaming my wife. Although I sill have some way to go before I'm likely have a mid-life crisis.------------------

I haven't done this in a while but excluding TC, Quetzal, Percipient, NosyNed, and crashfrog, and taking MrHambre's age at 37; that makes the average 33.95 and the mean 35 (9, 9 split with 3 on 35).------------------

Possibly. As I said, I haven't done this in many years and I could quite easily have the terminology wrong.------------------

Given that I am bored, I'll update this again.Only two changes, I have update both Brian's and my own age. I have also included the average and 'mean' at the bottom.

Excluding those that didn't give a numberical age and taking MrHambre's age as 37 the average age is slightly more than 31 and the 'mean' is 27 (15/15 split with 2 on 27).If anyone else has had or is having a birthday soon, let me know and I will update this.------------------
