Re: Any "midage" locals Out there
According to Collins Dictionary, this is "... usually considered to occur approximately between the ages of 40 and 60".[1] The current edition of the Oxford English Dictionary gives a similar definition but with a shorter span: "The period of life between young adulthood and old age, now usually regarded as between about forty-five and sixty." The US Census lists middle age as including both the age categories 35 to 44 and 45 to 54, while prominent psychologist Erik Erikson saw it ending a little later and defines middle adulthood as between 40 and 65. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the standard diagnostic manual of the American Psychiatric Association, used to define middle age as 40–60, but as of Edition IV (1994) revised the definition upwards to 45–65.
I'm going by Erik Erikson and the Edition IV of the American Psychiatric Associations definition - and therefore I'm still middle aged!!

Re: Any "midage" locals Out there
Well, "mid" has got to be classed as average, surely? Isn't it nice to be above average.....

As long as I have not been admitted to the Hydraulics Hospital I guess I'm in good shape.

Re: Any "midage" locals Out there
I may used the wrong word with "midage"
Its just i did not find the right word to describe the group betwenn 20 and 40 years old.
But i see now, there are a few around. What are you doing in your free time?
I am not the kind of guy that sits in the bar every day... yes i like to party as well some times but
I also like many daytime activitys like riding bike (harley on the street and enduro out in the dirt)
going to the gym, swimming, diving, tabletennis and so on and so on.

Re: Any "midage" locals Out there
I'd be happy to meet up sometime, although my daytime activities are hindered by work - my only day off is a Tuesday. I have a few evenings free, although I'm teaching karate Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday each week.
Give me a shout when you get to town.

I was 57 a few weeks ago, so i guess that means i'm almost ready for the old folks home.
