Porkylips, what were you doing when you was my age? Haha.

well, I'm not supposed to ask a lady her age....so...
I'd like to have my book published, sold bajillions and become a gazillionaire, check out the hotties in England, shag a few, buy a new house for my parents and live in the basement like a real internet hero.

Aye
I don't think it'd be too hard to run them better than they are at the moment.

Nah.
I want wooden floors. I'd make them myself, as I'm a Master Of Woodwork.

In the cellar stupid

( fuck shit up the best you never had, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 14:07, Reply)

You're stupid.
Cellars OBVIOUSLY have to have an earth floor.

( Cawl, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 14:08, Reply)

I have got a cellar numpty.
I just don't have a job I enjoy.
( girlinthehole, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 14:14, Reply)

Oh.
Can I live in it?
( Cawl, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 14:19, Reply)

Yup!
It's even got a window so you'd have to block that up.
( girlinthehole, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 14:23, Reply)

What?
Why would I have to block the window?
( Cawl, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 14:28, Reply)

Duh!
To stop the sunlight getting in.

12 years to go
Married with kids, or perhaps a nice kitty-kat, or some more chickens.

It would be nice if I had a sex life at 44. I sure dont have one at 32.

( crackhouseceilidhband Fuck off back to Mumsnet, Fri 19 Jun 2009, 15:57, Reply)

I'm not sure I can remember that far back
But at 44 I wanted for very little except some company. I now have a woman who loves me, two daughters of my own who think I'm kinda cool (and a sort-of-semi stepdaughter who I've written about before).

I know I'll never own a house again and I'm not fussed about that. I also know I'll never be able to train in Aikido again and that burns me every day. I'm clothed, fed, housed, I have a fun job and some great friends.

On balance, life is good.

This question is unfair!!
I'm already 8 years past your age. I haven't achieved anything and have nothing to look forward to now as you are implying I should have had it all by 44 :(
