As a newcomer to this Forum, it seems that most of the posters seem to be students or twenty-somethings.

Is that the case or are there different age groups on this board (like 30 - 40)?


If so, do they ever meet up - say for a drink, meal, bowling etc.

How do you tell people's ages then? Apart from some obvious ones I think I'd find it hard to tell. Perhaps we should test you?Or are they on the forum somewhere?

There are a lot of thirtysomethings on here. If you look at peoples profiles some of them say.

And yes we do meet up at times see http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7574.

I am 34, if you need to know.

And I'm even older than that!

:D

I would say that there is quite a broad range of ages on this forum consisting largely of 20's, 30's and 40's.

Hi Smiler....No I'm not claiming to be psychic - I just looked at the ages on the profiles!

Nice to be appreciated - I think?? :confused:

I'm 31 :-) and up for a beer anytime!

I personally think that there should be a 30-something forum meet. And it could be held at say... Trippets Bar which is a very 30-something friendly bar. They have a fantastic selection of wines, plus really good mellow music on a Wednesday... o.k. so that's the night that I DJ there... and yes I'm plugging again... :-s

But I do think it's a really good idea, honest!

Does anyone agree?

30 something - and would love the idea of a nice bottle of wine in Trippets.

Have never been in Trippets Bar .... but sounds like a nice place and thats a corking idea E-Man.

Trippet's is a top place. One of my favourites actually. Not that I get to go there very often - 40 something with kids!

I thoroughly agree there Zeddy.

I've been to Trippets and witnessed the awsome chillage sounds of DJ-Z man coupled with the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere of the bar.

Great place to chill out.

Me:

Chronologically - 42
Mentally - 4.2 (according to my ex)
Physically - between 32 - 62 (depending on the time of day)
Culturally - VH1 + 24
Sexually - still 18! (when does the urge die down?)
Financially - pensioner!

This is not a personal ad!

I know it's a cliche but in many ways it true, age is just a number.

Shall we say Trippets Wine Bar at 8.30 this Wednesday then?

wots wrong with not thirtysomethings??? :(

I think think that's a spiffing good plan Dr Neil. I for one will be there ;-). Jamie seems to be the social secretary of this forum I'm sure if he gets on the case we could have a nice little gathering of peeps (and please leave your zimmers at the door... arf, arf!).

I'll be up for that !!! YAY !! So... this being my first meet, what do I do ? Walk in with a bunch of bloody carnations ? :rolleyes:

Tell you what - I'll wear my obvious red jacket (pic here: http://love.lycos.co.uk/lovelycos/personal/personal.jsp?id=evildrneil) so you should be able to spot (to meet or avoid as you see fit) me at least :D

See u weds @ 8.30 :P

I can't make it but the idea sounds great and I'd be interested in future events. Have a good time everyone.

BTW - I hope I havent got the wrong end of the stick here - but just to allay any fears - this is to be a 30-something friendly meet NOT a 30-somthing only meet!!!

Well ... you're more than welcome whatever age you are :-)

Only just joined this Forum today, but if you've owt planned for Trippets in future count this 30-something in.

See everyone there later! :-)

Well what can I say ... was really great to meet you all ... thanks for your charming and wonderful company.

Next time we will have to DJ-nap 'e-man groovin' and force him to stay with us !!

Gurgle! it's quarter part two I've just got back home. Smashing night. Let's do it again!
