    I am 36 but have no hair (on my head). Yes, that's right, I am a bald man but if I was offered the chance to have it back again, I'd decline. Fit as a fiddle and strong as an ox and bald.

    Gave up playing along time ago GC, but most Sundays I run the line at my son's games. It's tough trying to keep up with 15 year-olds.

    Not if you get paid by Boss Hogg
    You get 16% of 40% if you are Sheriff Roscoe

    Throw anyway the numbers you are what you are and if you stay in and watch too much Telly then you could end up being 43 at 23

    Explain social life. I'm 47, married with 3 children aged from 5 to 17. I think I might have had one once but my memory doesn't stretch back that far.

    I'm a bit behind you GC at 47, but still play football. Some of the "young uns" are so quick and tricky with the ball, I sometimes have to rely on the David Webb "crunch" tactics to get the ball.

    I hope I'm still playing at 57 like you.

    53 yrs old and still in mint condition....well, maybe little bit overweight but still remembering some of the things that happens around me;) Two daughters 29 and 13. Second marrriage on the way.....yes there are majority of 53-yrs old here. Strange thing or maybe not because we were all teenagers during golden era of Bowles, Givens, Francis and co.

    Another one who is 59 years young. Would love to be stuck in 1975 or 76, two really great summers with a fantastic football season in between. Back then I could play golf in the afternoon and football in the evenings, last year I played nine holes with my grandson and couldn't walk the next day. The spirit is willing but...

    58 and 11/12ths, I'll opt for the 59s R Us group. Stuck in 75/76 as well, 2 daughters 32 and 25 plus granddaughter who is 3 on Xmas Day - and a Mrs who also has a birthday on Xmas Day - how bad is that!
