Dating an 18 year old? Really?

BTW, I wouldn't mind one of those A4 laptops.

I'm 34, which seems to be one of the more popular ages in this sample.

I'm 27.5

Slowly losing the hair on my head and acquiring it inside my nose, and I'm currently dating an 18 year old.
Did I hear someone say, 'mid-life crisis', cos I think I'm having one about 15 years too early.

Oh, btw, hello everyone. Haven't been around at all, been doing silly things like drinking so much at the weekend it takes two days to recover. Oh and f*cking like a rabbit - sorry, I prefer that to Amigas...


Hehe, thought I was the only one with a nose hair problem :-D Except I'm not losing it from the top, although I am starting to go grey :lol: Glad to hear you're getting plenty of exercise too ;-)


no nasal hair problems (not much anyway !), but I am sprouting from me lug'oles. I still have plenty on top (about 2 foot !) and a beard you could lose a weasel in. actually, a small badger could hide in my hair - it is greying !

oh, Cyberus, I used to to that - (not with an 18 yr old, lucky goit !) but I can't get near the missus anymore. something to do with the cosequences of doing that 38 weeks ago ! and that was the 1st time in ages too ! might have to pay a visit to the pliers cupboard, just so I can restart recreatin', and stop procreatin' !

-edit-
oh - nearly forgot...
my computers:
2x ZX81 (a 16K RAM pack, and I used to have an Alphacom 32 bogroll dispenser-I mean printer :-D)
a rubber spectrum 48K (issue 3a)
two spectrum+
a spectrum 128K (original with the heatsink)
two A1200's (including an Apollo1230LC lite, an Apollo 1230/40 partially working)
an A1XE-G3 (OS4 prerelease update 4)
a Toshiba Tecra laptop (not strictly mine- I do standby for a system that runs on AIX, and sometimes work from home too)
one partially dismembered Apple Mac IIci (no keyboard, mouse, or monitor)
a Handspring Visor
a Palm IIIc (given to me wife)
a Sony Clie SJ30
and I wouldnt say no to an original Sinclair QL either !
(I got the green eyed monster over me shoulder reading of ZX interface 1's and microdrives - I hankered for those in my teens !)

@Amiduffer

What would you expect from us youngins?  We are a product of the pioneers of home computer age.  We are the Digital Age. I myself still can't for the life of me, remember a time in my life (even when I was very very young) were I there wasn't a computer in our house, school etc.

Oh, you young kids. I was around 12 when I saw my first computer in real life. Nobody I knew had ever seen a computer. My school managed to get a Commodore PET on loan for a few days and we were all amazed. (yes, the very first computer I saw was a Commodore!)

I am horrified when I think that there are now generations of kids who have only known Windows. At least it seems from this thread that a few discover the amazing Amiga. :-)

I used amiga's since I was very young (probably 1995/1996).

The person who moved in next door worked at a school that used amigas and I got to borrow one during the holidays. At my school we had Macs and BBCs (my current comprehensive school still uses BBCs in the science department).

I then bought an amiga from the school in 1997.

So I have had an amiga for quite a loing time.
