Tell us a bit about yourself
Doctor? Teacher? Builder? Baker? Do you follow a particular sport, or do you prefer going to the movies or art galleries? What makes you tick? We'd love to know!
Why not share with our members a couple of lines about yourself? Introductions all around!
Tell us what makes you laugh, what you like to eat, or what sort of music to which you listen. If you need some inspiration, why not check out our Meet the Meeting Place contributors forum?
The Meeting Place is a hotbed of discussion, opinion and experiences shared, so why not get to know each other a little better? It's also nice for new faces to come along and see who plays on the Meeting Place, so why not let them know who you are?
Be funny, be concise, be honest (or not), but most of all, be brave and tell us who you are. You never know, you may make a new friend or two, or ten!
Most times i get into a serious debate on energy, computing, privacy, poitics, economcis etc it all goes well until they discover in in my mod 70s.. the immedate response is NOT 'Oh so you are just another of the expert uptodate elderly still putting in' NO its 'you cant be THAT old!
WAY past time we elderly (im 74) got onto the Boards and Governance bodies that currently treat us all as 'age care dependent past-it expensive useless overheads on the community'. many of us- at least of those of us still with reasonable health of course - are still learning, teaching, mentoring and keeping compltely up to date and looking ahead in an informed manner
