@great-big-stees saidI have lost 2 cm - I only know from the medical check-up.
Up until about 5 years ago I was 5'9" (approx 175cm), in the intervening years I seem to have lost 1/2" ( 1.25cm).
🤔 😠

Oh mighty jesus. By the looks of it it seems it might be around 55 to 60 but then we only looking at the players that are constantly in the forums. Seems older players have more time and like to be in discussions more than the youngsters. Myself I was away of the forums for quiet a few years!
@rookie54 saidProfiteroles were standard fare at corporate dinners in the 80's & 90's.
i did an image search for profiteroles as i had never heard of such a thing
i love the ghost of a duke
Good ones are great.
Cheap 'n' nasty not so.
Do you have éclairs? I think they are basically the same but served cold.
@talem16 saidYou could be in the right age range 55-60 as some have taken early retirement as myself and many others on here have done. We do have more time for playing in the forums and more importantly playing in our Clan games. I was surprised we have members in their 30's, they can't have much time to put into it, but could be a great relaxer after work, sometime even during work. 😉 Nice to get points of views from the different decades actually.

Just well endowed and a good supply of testosterone.....
I wish I could retire, 11 years over the official date, at least I get two paychecks now that the government doesn't care how much I make.
My average age would be about 30 then.

@badradger saidI was "mostly" retired at 55 but continued to "work" till I was 67 (cuz I didn't know what I would do with my time). I am glad I waited but in hindsight (20/20) I should have just kept "working", cuz, like they say..."I had more free time when I was working." 😉

@great-big-stees saidI was semi-retired at 50, completely retired at 57. I haven't actually worked since 2013 physically. I think you are right about having more free time when you're working. I seem much more busy now since I've been fully retired at 57. The 7 years was mostly just observing everything was going well, but did receive a pay check so can't count it as fully retired untill 57. 😉 If only it wasn't for the paper trail.....LOL....I am still NOT giving my age away, just now everyone knows I am older than 57. 😉 which if they were smart would have figured that out from t.v. shows I've said in public forum I watched.

@very-rusty saidIf you retired aged 57 and haven't worked physically for 7 years and if we take your posts into consideration I should guess you were 8 years old. 8 and a half perhaps?
