“It’s clear you’re in your sixties!”
So, no then. What about the rest of the AW? Did it get your age correct?

Unfortunately it did.
No because *looks over shoulder* I don’t just listen to stuff from the period I have been alive or have a preference for the specific teenage period when I was supposed to like music and then put away my albums and start listening to brass band music
LEAVE BRASS BAND MUSIC ALONE!
*parp*
Do you mean Carla Bley or Charles Mingus?
Not only am I not in my 50s, I don’t live in a world where life insurance is the most exciting thing ever.

What a great snapshot of your new friends at the Wollaburragonga “Shady Palms” Third Age Residential Community, Mr Thep! Such natural high spirits!
I confess I have my eye on the silver-haired lovely in the middle, going to make a pitch for her at Thursday Swingers’ Night.
I was thinking the same thing about that trio of GMILFs
I think it’s from the Viz “Up The Arse” page, isn’t it?
Oh, they’re on bicycles. I only just noticed. It looks like the two men on the right are applying screwdrivers to the control panels of the ladies in front.
do you mind if I apply my screw driver to your control panel?
think it’ll work?
“You might need a bit of WD40 an’ all at my age, love” the lady in the centre could well be saying.
Did they just receive a new delivery of Tena Lady?
It thought I was in my 60s too, thirteen years out in my case.
Amazingly it said I was in my 50s and all because I chose a 70s Elvis track over a 60s one by Cilla
Cheeky beggars said I was in my sixties too. I’m not sixty for another two hours ten minutes. Colour me miffed.
Take it again tomorrow and see if it tells you you’re 70 🙂
Why I oughter!!
Cheeky sods said I was in my 60s (I’m 48). It’s not my fault I hated 80s pop and listened to older, better stuff instead.
Same here (I’m 49) – and I love 80s music. Having said that I also love Stanley Holloway and Flanagan and Allen.
I can’t stand My Way. If they had used any other Sinatra song as an option, I’m sure I would have been in my eighties.
Sinatra did other songs???
Oh yeah, New York New York…
And this ‘classic’.

That is truly awful – never heard it before. Idly wondering who Dagmar was and what she’d done to deserve such treatment, I discovered the following fun fact: those strange protuberances on the bumpers of Cadillacs and Buicks of the early 50s are called Dagmars, in honour of her generous, er, bumpers.
Well , that can sod itself off ! In my Fifties !!! I´m in my mature 40´s
They called it right in my case (50s) – but not by much as I am 60 in May.
In my 60s. Eff off, you’re at lest 15 years out mate.
Psychometric poppycock.
Psychometric Poppycock – ah, the great lost John’s Children album.
Have this little upsie I’ve been saving, Moose …
It was correct for me (60’s) but what a naff collection of sings to pick from! To be fair,however, this comes from Smooth FM (or whatever) so it is unlikely to have much that us music snobs here are wanting to listen to!?
Sings?!?!? Sorry that was meant to be songs!
I prefer sings. It tickles my thoughting.
To be honest I would have preferred to pick none of the choices on offer, which just underlines the fact that I’d NEVER EVER listen to Smooth Radio.
To be fair though, I did buy half a dozen 78s this morning.
Bastards!
If it had given any folk options, it would probably have had me as being 143. As it is, it got me right.
What? 142?
As an aside Cat. Get your claws into Songs of Separation. You will love it.
It arrived on Friday and grabbed me on first listen. There’s even a bourree in there for me to dance.
Dancing keeps you spry and looking young, you know.
Got my decade, bang on.
Of course you could end up in your 20s just by lying – the choices are obvious enough.
The scariest thing was this, from the first comment:
“Adrienne Zolkwer Hersh · Grant Writer/Fundraiser at ERAN – Emotional First Aid by Telephone & Internet”
Life in a mess? Feel like shit wrapped in barbed wire? Give Adrienne Zolkwer Hersh a tinkle and turn that frown upside-down!
Her very name makes me feel neurotic…Noel Coward described Joyce Carol Oates as having more names than seems strictly necessary. (That’s an ombtw, btw.)
I’m a spry 53yo and it had me picked as “in your 60’s”
To think I selected Lionel Richie to make me seem younger! So much for that theory
Ditto “in my sixties”. I was appalled, I mean fuck me, I don’t even turn 59 til next week.
Yes, apparently I’m “in my sixties”, too.
I must just be old for my age.
I’m in my fifties, apparently. IT’S ALMOST AS IF THE QUIZ IS IN SOME WAY UNSOUND.
I’m in my 60s, apparently. I’m guessing this isn’t the most scientifically based of questionnaires. If it had been it would probably have said I was in my 70s. (Bungliemutt, aged 54 1/4).
60s too. It would seem as if I were if I listened to their choice of muzak, mind, but it was nice to see some late early period Rod before he became completely ‘craft.
AW Rhyming Slang: Saucecraft, abbreviated to ‘Craft = Daft
60’s for me too. Just because I’d rather listen to Diana Ross and Marvin Gaye than Spice Girls and Will Young.
If my wife did this quiz, she’d probably be in her 20’s.
And if I listened to Smooth Fm, I would probabbly have given up on life.
