*Wafts the air of youth and energy through the thread*

Been there and done that. Best one had to be the last bar I worked in. At one point it was the chefs, assistant manger and owner (4 people) that were older than me.

I'm 24 and everyone was at least a year younger than me :(

When the media define the music you listened to in your teens and 20's as an era of music.
So Iggy Pop, Rolling Stones and Hawkwind

*Runs and hides*

I'm sure my uncle was D on the services numbers

Re: Just had a discussion in the office...
 

Kinda got your generations mixed up there youngster :D

Iggy Pop came after the Stone & Hawkwind, and we were listening to Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Status Quo & Springsteen before Iggy came onto the scene about a decade later. :D

Notice I can relate to decades, I've been about that long :farao:

Re: Just had a discussion in the office...
 

Mavi you've just showed you age there.
I realised after I posted Iggy was nigh on 20 years after the Start of Hawkwind

*Walks in wearing Year out rucksack and apparel§*

§ I've never done a year out and I aint a rich kids that are associated with it

I used to know one of the later members of Hawkwind, not the original group, used to go fishing with him :D

Haha

Just check my dates and my response is:
Did you buy the original Motorhead EP?

Re: Just had a discussion in the office...
 

My brother bought Ace of Spades when it was released. I was old when that was released :confused:

My first purchase was David Bowie's 'Laughing Gnome' :confused:

Re: Just had a discussion in the office...
 

I estimate your age as early 50's

Apologies to all that this making very old!

Re: Just had a discussion in the office...
 

Funnily enough, in tonight's local news paper there is a double page all about naval sayings.
Jackspeak, and how a few naval terms that appear in everyday language.
The one that got me was "I was on the main gate when you were on cow and gate! "
Also cartoons drawn by Lt Cecil (tugg) Wilson that continue to be used in the Navy News.
Another that made me laugh was the term 'pickle jar officer' - A university graduate who can tell you the square root of a pickle onion to three decimal places but cannot get the fooker out of the jar!

and you don't look a day over 50!
