How Strange Is This?

I have just used a piece of software on the internet to tell me how long I have been alive and how long it is to my next birthday...

I thought it was wrong and said that's a stupid piece of software but then I did my own arithmetic using my fingers and the internet programme seems to be correct and I am...a year younger than I thought I was. So now I wonder if I have always had myself older than I really was. I have tried to work it out this way and that and still come up with the same answer.Smiley lol 061.gifSmiley dazed 7.gifBoth funny and confusing...

How Old Are You?

Very weird, still you have gained a whole year! Just think what you can do with it.

Still can't believe it Tawny and keep thinking "This cannot be!" But it appears to be so...

It may not last but I feel more positive today so I'll take that!

Yes :-) but somehow still counted it up wrong. It's kind of funny though...

Don't forget you live a year as 0 before you become 1.

Span,
That is probably the answer :o)

In fact when I did the last census I thought something was wrong That would be it!

One of the most bizarre things that ever happened to me is when I received a phone call from my mother asking me when my birthday was. The year and the month were agreed upon but the day has often been in question.

Similar thing happened with me too Shy, parents got wrong year for my 50th birthday having already got the wrong year (they were a year early) for our 25th wedding anniversary.

So I am not alone Shy/Paul :o)

I bet there are many who forget what Span said is true. You start your life at zero.

I don't think I linked to the age software I will add it to the main post in case you wish to try it out!

It also has many uses if you look around the site.
