We had a poll like this a long while back. Interesting. Just seeing how it's changed now. Has the mean average just simply gone up 15 years since then? :wink:

I'm 20 years older than when the forum kicked off. I was in my early forties then. I did answer, though.

Hmm ... overwhelming majority of Septuagenarians ... may explain a few things. :duck:

I was in the first category when the forum started. :shock:

It also dates the technology as well. 20 yrs ago forums were the only platform, now we have many more and the younger generations will use these

Exactly, social media has pretty much eliminated the open forum format. None of that existed when HHF was launched (as HHAD at the time) in 2002.

Maybe some moderator could add "Please vote!" to the thread title?

Ooo. The 60s to 70s and the 70s to 80s are now neck and neck! If my mum was resident here she'd qualify for the 'It's a miracle I'm still here' category. She's 91 and still appreciates a shandy or two.

Well my dear old Mam is just a youngster in comparison at 80!! Still loves a holiday or two and a red wine and Sherry or two now and again - perhaps that's the secret!! Doubtful she'll do the trip to Thailand/HH again - bit too much of a journey, but we'll be visiting Spain for a short break in a few months (health/fitness-wise she's a damn site better than me)!! Every moment is special - I hope to get many more years yet with her!! :thumb:
