Brammers: Oh god, apparently five of my friends have invited me to be on Facebook.

Brammers' young friend: OMIGOD! I can't believe you're not on Facebook! You should totally be there!

B: I'm old, dear, the first number in my age is a four.

BYF: You're NOT old. And besides, my mum is in her forties and she's on Facebook.

B: I'm old and I have no children I need to stalk on Facebook. Also, I'll just be over there having a little cry for the next few minutes ...



Back to the work, editing and writing. Slowly catching up!

One of the few advantages to getting older is that in some industries, such as mine, you need never worry about interviews or recruitment companies again.

Were I young, I would allegedly be very interested in economics, current affairs and hang-gliding ;-)
