It's not often I think to myself I would like to be 10 years older but I'm currently watching a documentary on BBC4 about Joy Division and thinking, I wish I was old enough in the 80s to appreciate that band.

Your go.....

Because I'd very much appreciate cheaper car insurance

No! I've thought about it and I can't think of one reason to wish I was older.

True. But not in the same way as the "in the moment" appreciation. And never going to see them play live.

Too young to have seen them live. Or The Smiths. Or The Clash. Or countless other bands. Still love them though

Deep down I knew the concept of imagination would be too much for some people.

"Deep down I knew the concept of imagination would be too much for some people. "

Scathing because...?

I'm enjoying life right now. If I was 10 years older I would be planning my death before the dementia sets up shop.

Wanting to be older now so that you could enjoy something back then doesn't make sense as it assumes your tastes would be those you have now. You may well have hated Joy Division back then.

My imagination works well and right now I'd say you're 51 with no hesitation.

You really really really don't wanna wish your life away like that. I'm so depressed to be my age, realising that I've been alive more years than I've got left.

I can't think of a reason to want to be older.

Life passes quickly enough to wish years away.

I wish I was older because then I'd look my current age - it's a curse being old and looking much younger, no one takes you seriously

Did she lie on her profile and claim to be 99?

Lol - you know what, she did - the little minx but as she didn't look a day older than 95 I was fooled by her
